Zut Alors! Here we go again...

Welcome to this travelogue which will describe our experiences and exploits as we ride around Europe peddling our own unique brand of British diplomacy to our cuddly little Johnny Foreigner neighbours. Yes, the Red Lion Bikers will shortly be back on the road once more and this year we take on Europe. 3300 miles of what we hope is the best that the continent has to offer... its beautiful and varied scenery, diverse and welcoming people, warm weather, wonderful roads and interesting food.

I shall attempt to relay our experiences in as literate a fashion as possible, the standard of which may vary dependent upon the usual factors...

Do feel free to have your say... become a follower (it'd be nice to beat last year's total of 4!) or add comments to any of the posts

Our route...

Our route...
We'll be on the look out for very large blue pins at each place we stop...

7 weeks and counting...

What six months ago seemed an age away is now nearly upon us. The cold and dark depths of winter have given way to the hope that springs eternal at this time of year... the dafs are out, the clocks have moved forward, the lambs are frolicking in the fields and the bike trip is only a few weeks away.

For those of you who would like to reminisce over last year's 'once in a lifetime' trip to the USA and as a reminder of the sort of garbage you can expect from me again this time, do take a look at http://redlionbikers.blogspot.com or Wild West Heroes

To get us all in the mood, and to encourage a bit of audience participation, I thought we'd start with a caption competition... The best comment will win a pint or a suitable 'ladies' alternative. So, what is Reidy saying to Neil...?

    Great plot but I think Sandra may have been better if pete had told her he is going and has brought a bike then the Internet

    Reidy to Neil - Don't worry about the language mate,it's as easy as falling off a bike -
    " Listen very carefully I shall say this only once....the french pissants are hiding in the German shiteu"......."Chateauneuf du Pape, I've got this lingo sussed"!!
