I did the 2010 Round Britain Rally on my 350 Bullet. 89 landmarks, 3 months, 9,500 miles.

3 Months, 24 EU countries plus another half dozen or so others, and I estimate about 12,000 miles. Oh, and that will be on a 30 year old bike

Not enough people were in awe at me over my tour of Spain, but with this trip I should get limitless boasting rights down the pub

Planning on a little get away for 2 weeks, aye.

Just trying to find the right bike for me and what will be suitable for the trip. The VTR certainly isn't.

Looks like my next bike will be a faired bandit.

I'm hoping to have a little jaunt around Europe mid summer. Not quite as magnificent at Nath's but should be fun all the same.

cornwall - london and back on a 2t 125 Should be... interesting. Not that far for you touring types, but quite a way for me to go all at once, on my own.

big by my standards. Hoping to ride my ickle 125 to Holyhead, and get a ferry to Dublin, and ride around Ireland for a bit.

My longest trip so far on it, Bedford to Fareham.

[natv4]

Well, once again Nath has trumpted me.

I'm looking at the following options:

1. India (mostly goa, bombay, and the Himalayas)
2. Norway (in summer)
3. St Petersburg, Moscow, Ukraine, Mayge Croatia on the way back)

I just got to some how find a way to take more time off work.
Nath - 3 months, I for one am very jealous.

Me and a mate have planned a trip round Europe. Starting off in France, going through Germany, through Holland to Amsterdam then coming back on the ferry from Rotterdam. Looking forward to it. Only problem is will my back take the pace, I've got an RSV Mille . So looking at getting a Caponord before I go.

[greatmoorred]

the norway trip sounds good,ive got a mate who has moved to storsiennes, way up north. I reckon you would get empty roads and at least 15 hours of good daylight, maybe more.

Route 66 by Harley for us next August, all being well. Just got to work finances out as we want to do it properly.

Failing that, we will be going to China (but no riding over there!)

I'm planing on going to Portugal in July. Mainly for the Moto Clube Faro Rally 2005, which has Iron Maiden as one of the live bands this year. But also as it will be good fun. I've already planned almost everything, well it pays to book everything early

Not going anywhere too far this next year i dont think...

Planning a few camping trips around the UK (same as last year realy) and a week or twos holiday up in Yorkshire...

Following on from that i am planning on getting over to the French side of the channel for some nice riding. Aparently its pretty good over there, and for my first trip abroad i think its not a bad choice.

Just depends how reliable the GS500 is being when it comes to it, unfortunately all my trips have to go through this stage, and at some point or another, are put back on the drawing board untill the old girl decides to go again
