Well i've just done 6000 miles around Europe and i'm now back home.

Went up to Norway, rode Trollstigen and over Valdresflye (what an amazing road over a 5500ft plateau of boulder fields).

Back down, and a ferry across the Baltic.

Through the rising landscapes of Eastern Germany, over the Ore. Through Bohemia and Moravia, into Slovakia and Hungary and then onto Romania, to do the Transfagrasan Highway (and the somewhat dismantled Transalpin Highway).

Back via the Great Hungarian Plain, Burgenland, Northern Limestone Alps and the Ardennes.
