I have just got back from two weeks of French road heaven all be it well down south.
Not one for long road trips I stuck the bike in a trailer and drove down to Frejus.
Up in the morning quick blast up to Bagnols-en-Foret on the D4 for spot of breakfast or
Maybe to the beach at La Napoule just outside Cannes, using the N7 from Frejus.
For something more spectacular D4 to St-paul-en-Foret to the D562 to Grasse then the N85 all the way to Castellane then the D952 to Moustiers-Sainte-Marie followed by the D957 to Aups. The D557 in to Draguignan dropping back down the stupendous D562.
And when you tier of this mountain perfection you can just cruise through the traffic to your fave spot on the N98, Monaco, Eze, St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, It’s nice in Nice, Antibes, Cannes, Ste-Maxime.
Park up next to your chosen harbour front café bar and chill.
No police, no speed cameras, perfect tarmac, endless perfect mountain bends and last but not least sun and stunning food.
It’s a bit warm for those of you that will only ride in leathers and boots but jeans and a T shirt is the local ridding attire and it dose stop you taking on the roads to aggressively, which is a good thing coz if it went wrong leathers ant going to help with a five hundred or thousand foot drop anyway.
Only problem is how to take up permanent residence and earn a good living but I am working on it.
Credit to the French Government for their road networks, superb!
And to my locale MP.
You good sir are a W***er, my claim for a new windscreen and paint damage is in the post after you allowed some jipo road team to paint the surface and shower Chipping’s over the area. Here I am expected to F***ing role the road with my new car for you. You are tacking the ****.
They say the average person uses up the benefit of their holiday within a week of returning home nowadays
Not this one it will last forever.
