    This is Tape 1 Part B “Somewhere in France” and might be a little of Switzerland.

    Video 2

    Great write up Toggsy, and the video was brill, shame about the big fly or bee that got in the way, but great story to read just the same.
    My stupid bro took his camcorder with him to TT but forgot the discs, t**t that he is.
    I must try remember to make a diary next ride out we have, that one off yours has inspired me. Gon Yursel man.

    Keeping a brief diary works well on these trips. Just bullett points from the day and then when you check out your pictgures it helps you string it all back together.
    I used this when writing up 2007 French trip

    Toggsy review has made me wish I had gone again this year, but you can’t do everything I suppose! I chose to go to southern Spain instead and had a cracking time there too. The moral is; if you get a chance to do some riding abroad take it, generally the roads and sights are simply stunning

    I’ve sort help and think I’ve go it sussed now, Really it’s just a way of getting my posts up

    Here we go

    Video 1

    Video 3

    Video 4

    Video 5

    Some more footage for you to get a headache over.

    If anyone is interested by the way, videos 1,3,4,5 are all somewhere in france with a bit of Switzerland and italy thrown in for good measure, actually Video 4 I think is the trip down the pass where the Jambons were camped out, that’s my excuse for going slowly anyway

    Cheers

    The best is yet to come, the camera is mounted on someone elses bike so footage will be a little more exciting…

    Oh, and Part 2 of the write up will follow soon

    Cheers

    Parts 4 and 5 are superb. The bloke in the Evo was a bit cheeky!
