Preparations begin - 2015 Europe tour

If you're interested in a weird guy who has a T�n�r� and a stuffed moose, travelling Europe for three months then please follow me on my Facebook page.

If you have any tips for touring, good roads or must-visit places, then please share them with me.

First-time touring in Europe, although I travel the UK all year with work (always on my T�n�r�)

Thanks for your interest.

Steve (and moose)

Best of luck with the trip.

For any tips or suchlike could you post your interests and with that then maybe there'll be a few events,that'll coincide with same?...e.g If you're into cars,then Pau classic car races normally each May.

If you find yourself in my neck of the woods by all means ping me for a beer and a ride out.

I'm retired and usually free most days.I can give you advice on local scenic roads both here and over the border into Spain,if you so desire. It's all my local playground,from here to the Atlantic coast.

I'm south of Pau by 30mins.

All the best

Keith

I'll do just that!
Fancy letting me camp in your garden for a night? :-)
See you in May

No problem..garden's big enough....I'm based close to a few Tour de France routes...(Asson 64800). By all means ping me closer to the time.
