Hi,
It's a pleasure to join this forum, hope to find some good people and useful advice.

As in topic I am planning to ride from London to Madesimo in Italy, then to Sardinia and back. Leaving Friday the 4th of August.
I was wondering if there is someone out there going the same direction that would like to join me.

Cheers,
Piotr

Sounds amazing. What route are you planning to take? What's your timetable?

Hi
Up to Madesimo I will take the fastest route, I am meeting some friends there and start a proper bike trip to the south.
Leaving the 5th of August and coming back 23rd.

I stayed at the Formule 1 motel in Chaumont (slightly southwest of Nancy)
It was typically Formule 1 (i.e., cheap and cheerful) but both myself (lone elderly female) and the bike (a GSX750) were perfectly safe.

What I hate about Formule 1 is that they rarely have toilets in the rooms, and my bladder invariably requires regular access to the toilet during the night. So yes, pissing in the bin may be a necessity if they put you in a room a long way from the bathrooms.

There is a Tex Mex restaurant (Texan Grill, which is attached to a slightly more expensive hotel (Hotel du Val) a bit further along the road, and it does pretty decent grub. Had a cheese burger and chips in there which was HUGE.
