[QUOTE="Rheal, post: 1010540, member: 27327"] Hello friends, Well, I am 1 or 2 weeks away from storing the FJR for another season. This has been a great riding summer for me, with my 5000 km Montreal to Front Royal --> Blue Ridge / Tail of the Dragon and Cherohala skyway trip being the highlight. I also did a couple a shorter trips to my birth place in New Brunswick (Canada) for family get togethers. Up until my recent -non-motorcyle- Italian vacation, I figured my next big trip would be Montreal --> Chicago --> Route 66 to LA --> Highway #1 up the coast of California --> Canadian Rockies and return. This would be a 10 or 11k trip taking 3 to 4 weeks. This was tentatively planed for the summer of 2014. But I am starting to think I should keep that trip for after my retirement (end of 2014 perhaps) and do a shorter trip in Europe instead in 2013 or 2014 ... or both! A 2 week trip of that type is easier to manage for a working man than a 1 month trip. And I know the riding in many parts of Europe would be great. I sure did love the Tuscany countryside ... and I've seen lots of other places in Europe that would be great on a bike. But for a trip on another continent, I'd like to be with a guided group! So the questions: [LIST=1][*]Does anyone have experience with this type of tour? [*]Do you have tour operators to recommend? [*]How well was the bike rental handled? [/LIST] Merci beaucoup / grazie mille / many thanks! Rheal [/QUOTE]
