2012 Europe Trip In the Bag
At last got my Europe trip all sorted. Thought I'd set my self a task this year and do this years trip without using any motorways from Calais.
Calais to Barden Barden Germany
Germany to Switzerland
Switzerland to Toulon
Toulon over night ferry to Corsica 4 days
Corsica to Sardinia 3 days
Sardinia to Corsica 2 days
Corsica to Toulon over night ferry
Toulon to Avallion
Avallion to Arras
Calais to Dover
Trip starts 1st October 16 days of sheer Z4 bliss carn't wait! Been out to Alps every year either on a motorbike or sports car for last 11/12 years and still get giddy thinking about those mountain passes. "Bring It On"

i was thinking of taking the mountain bikes but thats ow changed, eurotunnel is booked in the golf number plate, it will be cheaper and i'll not put the miles on the zed - still not convinced
