TRIP PLANNING KEV
IN TURNER
On the road with
nowhere to be
Is it worth the risk?
Yes, yes and yes again; the moment you
ride off the ferry/Eurostar onto foreign
roads, the sense of excitement and
adventure will have you grinning from
ear to ear. Lift your visor, feel the warm
French air on your face, then start
searching frantically for a road sign and
worrying about petrol. It’s all part of the
fun of that first ride in a foreign country
and the buzz will stay with you for as
long as you keep moving.
“Butit’snotwarmFrenchsunonmyface,
it’s cold French rain.” No problem,
provided you’re not committed to being
anywhere in particular, just head away
from the clouds. That’s the joy of a trip
like this; you have no obligation to being
anywhere and no purpose beyond
enjoying your riding.
