Earlier this summer we rode from London UK to Greece and back. There are some pictures and stuff here.

Not many of the Softail but it might be of interest. Parts of the blog are out of order, but there are some cool tales and pictures. Just over 3,000 miles in 3 weeks. It was a blast.

In a little more than a week we are heading for Exmoor, in England and on a bank holiday weekend so the weather is bound to be terrible. Only 500 miles or so, but I'll try to get some nice pictures or tales to share.

Thanks, the trip was amazing. I am glad the pictures are appreciated, not all really do justice to the scenery and stuff.

I'm planning next summer, maybe a tour of Turkey. Ship the bike to Istanbul or Izmir, start from there. I need to check out how much it would cost.

Off tomorrow afternoon for a far shorter trip around southern England. I'll post some pictures and tales when we get back.
