Get yerself darn the sarf of France, brilliant roads like the N85/N75 loadsa sun, good food & wine,

Can't beat it.

The onlydown side is the 700 mile plus trip from the tunnel exit to get there. It can be done in a day without going crazy.

Was supposed to be off today for a nice tour round france.
Recent events have now led me to postpone till september.
You never knew, our paths may end up crossing.

I really think the best roads in France are in the East of the Country. Start in the Alsace / Vosges region, (La route des Cretes), you'll also find the best white wines of the country. Then head south to Jura, best road surfaces and bends I've ever ridden, Snetterton looks like a coutryside footpath. Don't forget to look at the landscape when you're there, the moutains and the coutryside are beautiful. Then carry on to the Alps, the centopassi region. Nothing needs to be added.

That's what I would do. Only problem is to get to the East of the country, you must cross the rest of it and that's not that nice... I don't like the South, too many people, common roads, craziest drivers in the country.

Tonio, what's the weather likely to be like in Southern France, say mid-September? Will we cook like hot things being cooked in a hot oven?

900/999 Man, why don't you PM either myself or Redruth with your mobile number. If we're within a hundred miles or so of each other, it would be a shame not to stop somewhere for lunch!

Looking forward to this trip!
