Drive.

Finally going on my little drive.
Eurotunnel Tues morn then blast straight down to Ljubljana in Slovenia. Have a look at Lake Bled whilst there.
Then zig zag back up over 8/9 days through Austria, Switz, Lichtenstein, and top end of Italy taking in lots of passes, the Matterhorn, Eiger, Titlis and stuff in between. All Hotels are booked.
Expect photos.

No need to tell you to have fun , but when you say "Drive" , does that mean you're on four instead of two ?

[bobsnicholson]

Unfortunately yes, 4 wheels. Far to many Ks to do on a bike........for me. Going in the M5.

Robert that sound's a amazing trip, all photos of those areas very welcome, seen pictures of Lake bled before, beautiful looking place, hope you have a blast.

We have been to the top of Titlis in Switzerland before. There is a great Ice Cave there. It's accessed in a little quaint village called Englebert.
The Sky Bridge at the top between two peaks was closed when we were there due to bad weather (it had cleared up but the staff had not got there to manage it). So hopefully it will be open this time. Just one of lot's of things to see/do in the Swiss and Austrian Alps. Love it.

That's sneaky, coming to the tunnel and not telling me in time to meet up for a quick coffee. Make sure you let me know next time and maybe we can manage to find each other this time!

Sorry B, all a mad dash. In any case Shirley made me some cake to take with me.

I think i will be getting back to Folkstone about 2.30am on 14th for a early hours drive up. Should we meet then

[Beelady]

As it's you I would make the effort as the services are 24 hour. I expect you're wanting to get away fast but I can be there if you have time to stop for half an hour. Don't expect to see the Street Triple though. I'll be snug and warm in the car at that time of the morning

[bobsnicholson]

I wouldn't dare put a lady through that inconvenience.

This run that spose to be happening on the 23rd to Ironbridge. I suspect you wont be on it ......too far i guess.

Part 2.
Grosslockner Pass. Have you done it????
Positively scary going up as visibility was almost zero and snow everywhere

3 mts of snow. And our country shuts down with 2 inches on the motorway, pathetic.
