Hi, I am planning a 3 week trip (first 3 weeks in May) to Slovakia and back, and my riding partner (brother) who was going has had to cancel. As it stands I'll be doing it on my own (on my 660Z Tenere), but was wondering if anyone would like to join me. It will be camping all the way, with free camping in South Belgium (Ardennes) and in Bohemia (Czech Republic). I am 55, and have started biking again a year ago after a 20 year break. I used to race motocross and enduros before, but this trip will include gravel at worst. I am also restricting my days to shorter than 250 miles per day, and cruising at 65 to 70 miles per hour.

Hi Jacques,

I don't frequent this forum much anymore as I have replaced my Tenere with a Terra. But we will also be passing through the Tatras in 2015, albeit on our trip further east into Ukraine.
We are also leaving a couple of weeks after you, but I'd be interested in hearing your experiences and tips for the Tatras. Some last minute intel from on the ground is always nice to have.

I've decided to move my trip to next year and do some local riding and a mini trip down to the Ardennes in South Belgium instead. This way I can do Wales too. Let me know about your trip and any tips you have.

All being well I would like to join in with your trip next year, lets have a chat at the Wales meet.

Great stuff, I look forward to that. I have done quite a lot of research, so should be able to give you a lot of facts and figures.

Hi Gents, I really liked the sound of this when it was originally posted but 2015 was mad busy for me. I'd be up for this next year though. I'll be at the Wales meet so talk to you guys then.
