I spent a brilliant weekend with David Charlton at the Overland Winter Warmer event that was held at Chipping Warden. Lots of fog, sunshine, tea and a very cold Sunday morning. Some excellent presentations and we met up with many really nice people. I was so glad that I took my ex Army Artic Sleeping bag.....
Having taken part in the charity motorcycle event "Enduro Africa 2008" and having read and enjoyed so many books on Adventure Motorcycling - I thought I needed to get out and do it.... I have now ridden in France, Spain, Andorra, Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Czechia, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Croatia, Morocco, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia, Albania, USA and Nepal.

Plan for Main Trip of 2019
Dear readers, Looks like I will not be getting to USA Overland Expo 2019 in Flagstaff. Maybe I should plan to return in 2020. Having looked at the maps of Europe there are so many countries and places that I have not yet seen.

So riding my trusty 22 year old Honda XRV 750 Africa Twin and clutching my new UK passport, UK driving licence, International Driving Permit, Green Card Insurance, Foreign Travel and Medical Insurance and book of maps, I will be doing a 6,000 miles trip around Europe and Eastern Europe in June and July.
The plan is to pass through and maybe even stop a while in the following countries (in no particular order):
