Hi Eddy,
I saw your post and wanted to let you know I am interested in doing at least some parts of your trip with you however life is in a state of flux at the moment so unfortunately I cannot make a hard commitment for October as of yet.

I am relocating to somewhere (depends on wife's job hunt) this summer (likely east coast US or to the EU) so that needs my full attention now.

A trip from Europe to India was going to be my next adventure but would consider Africa if you are going that way in the winter.

About me: 55 this summer, easy going and have done moto camping trips all over the western US, Mexico and last summer I did 2 months around India. I'm OK on and off road and usually ride my DRZ400s. I enjoy taking it slow and absorbing he landscapes and cultures of an area and not afraid to wander off on the unbeaten path.
Languages: English, intermediate Italian, some German (lived in Vienna years ago) and some Spanish.

Anyway, please keep me abreast of your plans and I will do the same as time passes and more falls into place.
Best,
James
