Spent almost 2 weeks in Europe on a BMW R1250 GSA riding the backloads.
BEAUTIFUL countrysides!
Group of 12 riders.
This should be a public link to give you an idea for what we did:

I'm sure most of you are savvy enough to figure out the web page!
Cheers,

Awesome. Who put the ride together? All friends?
Sounds good! Too bad they didn't have F6B's. I just rode my buddys BMW R1150RT, for a 750 mile trip. Was okay, but not even close to the comfort and power of the F6. It handled well in the corners, but was very top heavy, at low speed manuvers. Unless the newer models have REALLY improved, I will never own one. Not trying to hi-jack your thread, Steve. That must have been an awesome trip! Congrats on the European fun!
What a great series of pictures, made me hungry and thirsty. The seat height on the BMW looked really high!
In your notebook did the first line say you dropped the bike? Probably cause the bike sat so high.
I did! The seat was high, even in it's "low" setting, however I was able to use the balls of my feet for balance.Quote:

I laughed.
Food, beer, bikes, scenery, not sure I could get the smile off my face after a trip like that :)
Thanks for sharing :cool:
Outstanding trip and photos!!!!!
Great pictures. Looks like a really good time.
Sounds and looks like an AWSOME TRIP , my hats off to you SIR , and I am definitely jealous !!!
Thats an awesome trip! Think I gained a few pounds just looking at the pix and now I am dyin for a good cappuccino.
Was this through one of the vendors like Edelweiss or IMT?
So roughly, how much did the trip set you back (i.e. cost)?
thanks,
Pete
Through Maximal Tours, it was $5k - that included bike & hotels. Airfare, meals, gas, gifts were on me. Prolly another $1.5k all told.Quote:
