THAT FAMOUS CROATIAN ROAD We woke up bright and early as always. The island across the harbor bathed in the morning sun.. Last look out the balcony before we got on the bikes We got out of Senj and was immediately greeted with miles and miles of this... This was the stretch of road...

LITTLE TOWN CALLED SENJ As usual, we gathered in front of the hotel to go for dinner. While waiting for the others, I took a couple of shots... War memorial Not a fan of cruisers but this looked beautiful under the street light. Little boats docked at the pier Friendly ice cream man...

THE INVASION OF SLOVENIA! Woke up hungry and joined the gang for breakfast. That's orange juice, by the way. My first time drinking red orange juice. Just a nerdy shot of me in front of the hotel we stayed in. We typically try not to spend too much on hotels. They just have to be clean...

Ah yes, no h in the pronunciation. And yes, there is more coming... :)

VENICE So we arrived at our hotel, just off of the island of Venezia. Refreshed, we got onto a cab and headed to Venice... What we saw as we explored the narrow streets and canals of Venice... Intricately painted masks made into fridge magnets. The wife bought a fridge magnet at...

Hi Mem! Yeah, Sandra (tried) to teach me a whole bunch of Italian and French. Unfortunately, I don't remember much. But I do believe the spelling for bruschetta is correct? That t-shirt made me LOL the first time I saw her wear it. The license plates are pretty cool eh? Many people noticed...

Yeah, I guess that would always be the case. If you're riding with people who know the area, the can take you to the best roads, the best places to eat, and places to see that no tourist could easily find on their own. I do photography for a bike tour company in Malaysia and that is always the...

Thanks Beemerdons!

OFF TO VENICE! We got up bright and early. Just the hallway in the hotel we were in. I believe this was Hotel Roma - one of only two hotels we could find. Our day always begins at 8am where we meet at the lobby and go out together to get breakfast. Group shot before breakfast The...

Continuation. So after crossing into Italy, the rain followed us around for a good while. We did not shoot anymore photos. However, before it rained, my SO did capture this video - I'll call this PIACENZA We arrived into Piacenza cold and wet. We found a hotel, checked in and after a...

Yeah, I guess you're right. I met Dave, Sandra, Ian and Chrissie in '09. They came to Malaysia for a 5 day ride. I was not yet a biker at the time. Had never even been on a motorbike for the 38 years (at the time) that I had been alive - well, except once for only a very short, 50 meter...

Continuation THE ROAD TO PIACENZA Morning came and we were about to do 350 kilometers to get to this place I was thankful to see blue sky when I looked up We had breakfast in the courtyard I carried all my stuff in a pair of soft panniers and my DLSR in a tank bag In the parking...

Continuation... Stuff we saw on the TGV to Nice... Miles and miles of farmland... vineyards... and neighborhoods with some mountains in the distance Our car was right next to the buffet car, where you can get lunch and enjoy views of the French countryside while you hurtle towards...

Dear friends, thanks for all the encouragement. More of the ride report coming in the next post. But first, to the discussion that KhunaJawdge brought up. @KhunaJawdge, Thanks for your kind words. I've heard of Edelweiss but never had any experience interacting with them other than browsing...

Back in February, my good friends, Dave, Ian, Chrissie and Sandra came over to Malaysia for a 5 day tour. We had a good time and as the ride came to an end we asked, "So what's next?" "Croatia", says Dave grinning ear to ear while looking at Sandra. This was us, having that very discussion...

Yes, The wife and I are all set to go. Our flight to Paris is next Tuesday and we've been spending the last week or two trying to figure out what to bring or not bring. Really eager to get started. I'll be sharing the pics only after I get back from the trip towards 3rd week September. I'll...

Looks like an awesome trip. Wonderful pics and videos. Thanks for sharing. Getting me excited for my own european tour next week!

Enjoyed that very much. Thanks for sharing.

Hi. I found this clip on youtube and wanted to share. I think I have their mindset. I think most of us here do. Have a nice day!

No risers for me. But I'm fairly short. 5 ft 7 in. Plus, I prefer to be leaning forward just a little bit when in the saddle.
