The story starts in the links below. Past readers note that I have reversed the order of the stories so that they are now in chronological order, since this story is no longer 'live', and is now past history.

This ride will not be for the ride alone of course. I will be trying to see as many sights as time will allow. I believe there is probably no better or faster way to see the sights than by motorcycle. Compared to public transport such as buses and trains, you have much more flexibility with times and where you go, and compared to cars, finding a parking spot is so much easier, not to mention cheaper because they often don't charge motorcycles. In Europe, especially in summer, just finding a parking spot  for a car can be an exercise in frustration, and often, they have to park kilometres from where they want to go..

These stories will attempt to give you an idea what to expect, should you ever visit. Of course, all of these will be from my own perspective. I will be on a tight budget, so not many restaurant meals, no hotels, mainly camping/hostels/pensions. My idea of a holiday is not to lay around relaxing, it is to see as many different sights and have as many experiences as possible. Hence my writing will have an emphasis on culture, history and landscapes.
