Hi all - the Kiwi alps tour in June is now all full with 9 bikes and 10 people off on the trip of a life time, 4000km, 5 counties all on sports bikes
BUT there have been a few that commented that they would still love to come - I have had a chat to Peter Spoori and he says he has a few places left on this tour http://www.fast-travel.ch/index.php?file=590&lang=en&ses=d3af8dde88d4. This looks almost as awsome as our trip. Give him a buzzz if you have a few thou sitting around from a tax refund

Cheers

Boy, this is looking GOOD !! :yes:

Been organizing a similar tour for a small group of 6 for the last 2 years.
Got the tickets/ insurance/ bike-hire deposits/ tour-shirts paid and organized.
Not as flash as your bikes, but 38days on the road, 10.000km and some gravel roads (there's an amazing number of old WW1/ WW2 military roads useable, stretching from southern France to Slowenia... but hard to find).

Going early Sept., staying away from Euro-holiday season (low-season pricing, too), but catching up with the harvest and all the traditional local specialty-foods/ fiestas/ etc that come along with that.

Leave a few of those "hills" for us, willya? :D
