Yes sounds ace. Not knocking it. But fancy something different. Obviously i could only waste say 2 weeks of next year, doing my lifes bucket list. Ha.
What mog did last year sounds good, but even that's normal!!
A road trip is the the thing i think, but where and what on

Personally I'd get a Classic bike or Car, get insured and just head east for a few weeks seeing where you wind up.

Do family want to go with you? Scotland supposedly has a good campervan route along coast which would be family friendly

 

[diggerjones]

Scotland and campervan probably ticks the box's for family. Got a brother up there, borrow parents campervan.
I've done a bit of travelling in the past, spent a summer travelling round the states and Canada.
Heading east sounds good but maybe fly and get a vehicle to travel round when there.

I've done E.S.E. to the far side of Hungary, across France, Germany and Austria .... long ol' way on me old Shafty Kawi, but pleasant .....not as long as some of the ride back ... did 986 miles one day .... killed a few tank-fulls .... never bettered it

I've drove to Belarus 3 times taking aid out for the Chernobyl fall out. That was eye opening in a truck convoy

When I first opened this thread I thought is was about the different buckets available

How about doing the Rallye Monte Carlo Historique rally stages in your choice of car in June

We went to the Monte-Carlo F1 for my old mans 60th and although there was a lot of hype it was good

 

[diggerjones]

Well I've got tickets booked for Iceland (the country) with my brother, in late may. Not very exciting but a start

Lovely place, went last new years. Expensive though

 

[diggerjones]

Trust me brother to pick the most expensive place
