You'd be guaranteed good weather on one of the 14 days in Scotland
I have an urge to revisit the Tatra mountains in Slovakia, 14 days should be just about long enough to get there and back avoiding motorways and dual carriageways

Thanks Bud. Would your generosity also run to a set of Supercorsas for me sh300 too, cos i'm going to need an edge...
A man of your ability would be happy on a cheapo pair of shitty Taiwan tyres.Taipan wrote: ↑Mon Nov 09, 2020 10:56 pmThanks Bud. Would your generosity also run to a set of Supercorsas for me sh300 too, cos i'm going to need an edge...
You can retire and live on the bikeScootabout wrote: ↑Thu Nov 12, 2020 9:38 pm Could I have three such trips, please? One to Scandinavia, another to Eastern Europe and third to the Alps and environs. Surely that's not too much to ask, boss, given how hard I've worked?
I'm already retired, and I'm tempted to, but, er, others may not see it the same way....
I wasn't expecting us all to sleep in tents, that's why i gave us a decent budget
You can buy/loan/hire one... just comes out of the £3000 budget so you may be tenting it
That used to be part of the buzz for me, strap a tent on the back and just pitch it where I end up at the end of the day and can't ride any more.
Yup. It's not too bad over hereTrinity765 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 5:26 am I'd pack my boots, gloves and helmet and fly to the Canary Islands - pretty good weather all year being near the equator and one of the sunniest places in the world. I'd stay in a luxury cave with sea views and hire whatever bike I could reach the ground on and ride until I was sick of hairpins. I looked into it a couple of years ago and I seem to remember that there's over 2,000 hairpins on Gran Canaria alone and plenty of ferries between the islands. Sold!
We've been to Crete twice, first time was a proper holiday from hell kind of affair...
