Take this Director of MCE Insurance, one meaty Harley Davidson 1.6 litre fuel injected DYNA FAT BOB and the South of France and you've got adventure. You've got excitement. You've got what motorcycling's all about- FREEDOM!
Dom's allowed us to publish a snippet from his diary- read this and look at the pictures in the slideshow at the top right. It's enough to make you want to drop everything and throw your leg over- in a motorcycling sense of course..
Don't forget to click on the pics to enlarge them to get the full benefit of the surroundings. Simply awesome. Over to Dom:
“Travelling right down the spine of France from Calais to Troyes then to Dijon - First two hours the rain came down - soldiered through the rain - never been so wet - got to Lyon - a warm 25C, here comes the sun and the ride - 700 miles down and still only half way, The next day down to Nice, and St Tropez – Sun, Sea and Motorcycles....
From Grasse started my the climb into the Alps, up to Mons in the Var through the national parks, up and up I kept going - on towards Grenoble and Switzerland - the previous day I had been at the beach, then today I was in the snow with goats and men that yodel !
At Grenoble started on towards Bourge En Bresse and the long stretch up towards Calais and the Euro Tunnel which indicated the start of the return - I had travelled 2500 miles, met a 1000 different bikers from many nationalities - the French (naturally as I was touring France) Spanish, Germans, Italians, Yankees & 'La Rozzers' !
All with their own story to tell, all with their adventures who then became a part of my own adventure, and all shared the same passion ... "motorcycles, the open road & the sense of no tomorrow... the freedom that only bikers understand "
I have seen, smelt and witnessed some amazing things on this trip, my favorite is the way Bikers "salute" each other - In England you Nod, in Europe you give the PEACE sign or kick your foot out to say "bonjour" My advice to other bikers thinking of this trip is Do iT ! Enjoy IT ! and there’s always a Petrol Station just round the corner .... I feel this is just the start of my adventures !”
