Metzeler Tourance Next on a '63 Twincam and I hammered the last 443 miles to home..
Jeezo, that was quick! After all those miles though, the pull of home is strong! Well done on a great trip Iain and ta for sharing.
Doc would prescribe a substantial dram and a good night's sleep!

I had a bottle of red wine and a good night's sleep.
Just read this. Thoroughly enjoyable and it's providing some food for thought for me next year
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I usually do a road trip report after I return home but thought I'd try a "live" one this year.
It was briefer than usual as I was using my phone and the pictures were fewer and not so good as, when I had a poor signal, it would only send in a lower quality.
Next summer I'm heading to Spain, through France, and Portugal.
Where do you fancy going next year?
I'd have thought you'd have been going to WWW2
On your doorstep
JaJaDee get yourself along and meet some of us

See you in Turkey and maybe Georgia next summer. Your round I think.
Lotschburg tunnel from Kandesteg to Gopplestein. 30 minutes and the bikers have a seating carriage just for them. No queuing and on first - slick. My Nav 5 showed me a picture of a boat but the road signs showed a car on a bogie! I didn't know what was ahead. We must have been about 3000ft high.

Blimey Ive been round that area loads and never knew this existed......... now on the list
Taking on board your recommendation I am now in Sibiu, old town to be precise. Gorgeous large piazzas I'm now cooking and loving it.
Once my bier cools me down I'll explore.
Transalpina was lovely: hardly a straight bit of road anywhere.
Fantastic, easily my fave place in Romania.
Here's a wee (rather ironic) upgrade to the story.
As I said previously North Macedonia didn't let me in (other than 200m. to do a u-turn and leave) and Bulgaria was really hard work because I only had 2 copies of my V5C with me and they wanted to see the master one.
While packing my TB TC GSA for my coming first tour of the year I put some Euros in a plastic bag in my secret storage unit behind a pannier. In there I found a very grubby V5C copy in a plastic bag - no I didn't; I found my master V5C had been in there since I got the bike in 2015!!!!
I could have gotten into North Macedonia Greece and Bulgaria no problem!
Why they must see the original copy I still don't know.
However, I'm not going there this year so won't be asked for it anyway.
I did laugh at myself I must admit.
Twat!!!!

Now I know I have it with me I don't need it!
That was a close shave for the Greeks, Bulgarians and Macedonians.
But fair play to you Iain for admitting it. Enjoy your next trip.
Thank you, I'm on it!
