Rockin' Europe Old Skool Pics (Europetour)
Hi Guys,
We're back from the Europetour now so i thought i'd post some pics. We've got over a thousand pics and videos all together but i'll just post a few for now as i don't want to bore you to death, lol.
For anyone that doesn't know, we went from Liverpool, England, right through France from Calais to Toulon, St Tropez, Cannes, Monaco, Genova, Pisa, Florence, Rimini, Venice including Lido island, Lake Garda, Glorenza, A tiny corner of Austria, Over the Swiss alps to St Antonien Switzerland, Black Forrest Germany, Luxembourge, Belgium and back into France to come home. We also visited Valentino Rossi's home town and birthplace along the way
At the Ferryport at Calais, France.
Claire asleep on the way down through France
First stop in France, wearing the Cbr tour shirts we had made
From left to right. My girlfriend Clare, Chris (Chrimbow),his girlfriend Claire, Sue (Gra's wife) Gra (GMC) and myself, Gaz (NoBrains)
Curling in a supermarket, lol. Chris polishing the floor for me to push Claire faster
Next below.........

Parked up in Antibes, France, ready for breakfast
Bringing the tone down in Monaco, lol.
Me and my MCN newspaper at Pisa.
The only breakdown, a flat battery, lol. Taken out of the hotel window in Florence.
Michael Angelo's David, also what we called our private parts for the rest of the trip :P

Thanks for the great comments guys. More pics below
Didn't manage to do the Millau Viaduct as it's further west than we went. looks great though
Me and Clare doing the famous Titanic pose, or not, lol.
The road down to lake Garda with one of many hairpins.
The hotel we stayed in at garda (blue and yellow) was so close to the lake if you rolled out of bed you got wet
Sunset over lake Garda.
The triplets waiting for their panniers to be added before leaving Garda

The fabulously coloured Lago Di Tenno, just north of lake Garda.
Clare and Claire at Graun, what's left of the sunken town just north of Glorenza in Italy.
There's always one idiot that has to cross the hard way, that would be me then, lol.
Up in the clouds in the alps.
Coldest tunnel in the world i reckon. We all went from sunshine to instant shivers.

Sat nav showing 10 hairpins ahead on the Stelvio Pass :O
Middle of summer and still a bit of snow in the background
Just one of the many pics taken up the Stelvio pass.
Stelvio pass hairpins below us. 14 on the way up and 49 on the way down if we counted right (they're numbered)
On the way to St Antonien in Switzerland
