Motorcycle trip bucket list

[Bustaspoke]

Seeing as we're doing the 3 bike garage bucket list what are the favourite 3 trips you've done & what 3 trips do you still want to do?
My 3 are;
Bol D'or 24 hours back in 1986,the madness of it all
Isle of Man Classic TT/Manx GP I prefer the laid back atmosphere compared to the TT
A day hooning around Bali on Honda 110 step thrus.What a hoot that day was
3 Still to do
Lofoten & the Nordkapp
Morocco
A French tour including Route de Grande Alps & Route Napoleon.
There's a few other that I could add to either list but 3's the magic number so what's your 3?

I'd like to ride to the Arctic Circle just to say I have.

Road trip to Tromso anyone?

[Rockburner]

As long as I'm on a bike I'll enjoy it, don't care where.

Been there, done that, bit underwhelming. The fjords further south are much better.

Had Nordkap on my list at one stage, having spoken to people who have done it it is a loooong way to go, and pretty boring.

Still to do a trip of any note but this year could be the year I get to ride down to our place in France as the missus may have found someone to share the driving with when we go in Spring. Once down there there's plenty of routes in Lot and around the Volcanoes of the Massif Central I want to ride.

Anything else this year will have to be UK based. Fancy forrin trips will have to wait for retirement I suspect.

I do plan to ride the length of Italy (yeah...predicable) when I jack work in.

In the meantime, the Catford one-way system to the B.P. garage on the A21 in Sidcup holds a certain appeal....

Pretty much this... Bikes trip with a few days away from home on roads you've not been on before are ace.

Day's out on the same old roads does get boring.

Harley on (a bit of) route 66. Apart from that i dont have any particular desire to ride a bike anywhere other than work and back and possibly to the market?

Jokkmokk isn't massively exciting

The only motorcycle trip I've done that I'd do again was a fantastic trip to the Peak District in May 1992 (I think) which involved a lot of getting up just after dawn and annoying everyone along the A6 from Darley Dale to Buxton and back again.

I definitely don't want to do any long trips to risky countries, I found them both boring (the riding is pretty dull) and stressful (always thinking what the fuck do I do if something seriously goes wrong, I'm one of life's worriers)

The Visordown Supermoto rides in Northern Corsica and The Ardeche were fantastic (and nearly 20 years ago!).

Fez to Mergouza in Morocco earlier this year-rain, snow, sunshine and a sandstorm all in one day

Motril to Sorbas in Andalucia just a couple of days ago. Roads with smooth surfaces and no pot holes, and fantastic scenery.

Less favourites, Helsinki to St Petersburg on a borrowed 883 Harley-total nutters trying to overtake lines of lorries without being able to see whats coming the otherway. So many wrecked cars seen on the side of the road.

A13 into London in the pissing rain. Happened too many times to count in over 21 years of bike commuting

[Sunny]

Some favourites:

• The Black Forest in Southern Germany

• The N260 through the Pyrenees

• The Picos in Northern Spain

• All over France

Some of the ones I wanted to do by bike I've now done by car, so:

• Croatia

• Montenegro (the Sedlo pass in particular was stunning)

• Romania

• New Zealand

...are also all up there as favourites.

I still want to do Norway.
I also really fancy Italy.
Somewhere further flung like Vietnam or Nepal is on the wish list too.

If I could get off the end of the drive it would be a start

Isle of Man Classic TT/Manx GP I prefer the laid back atmosphere compared to the TT

We went over the hill from Ubud to Beratan in September. Central ubud was less fun though.
