What started as a modest idea to go for a short ride through France has morphed, ridearound style, into an epic adventure that far exceeds most of our usual bright ideas. This, technically, is not true because we regularly have wild ideas, the difference this time is that our tickets are booked and the sat-navs are starting to tremble!
At the end of September, most of team Ridearound and a few additional friends are setting off on voyage of discovery.
- We will discover huge mileage as we cross countries.
- We will discover beer at the world famous Oktoberfest in Munich.
- We will discover interesting odours in the tents we will be camping in.
- We will discover the history of BMW at their museum, also in Munich.
- We will discover the many turns of the Nurburgring race circuit as we trundle our fully laden tourers around.
- We will discover multi-national gastronomy as we have breakfast in Germany, Lunch in Brussels and Dinner in France.
- We will discover claustrophobia (if applicable) in the Euro Tunnel.
- We will discover our inner interior designers at the Grand Designs Live Exhibition in Birmingham
- We will discover brown trousers by bungee jumping in Bristol.
- We will discover doughnuts and gambling in Weymouth.
- We will finally discover sleep as we head home!
That’s right, we have a lot to do and, I agree, there is a good chance it will all go to pot when we get to the beer festival. But with our adventurer hats on, we plan to have a bloody good go at it all! At the very least, it will put us in good stead for some of our next crazy adventures!
Much much more to follow!
