Just ask one of the S2K Jocks for some suggested routes, Jamie - much cheaper..... If you're still casting around trying to find something to do with your week off, why not take the ChavMobile north of the border and take in some gorgeous Scottish scenery and wonderful roads?

bunch of mates and i experiences europe's finest tarmac about 2 or 3 times a year... hotels b&B's are really easy to find on spec. Talk to the respective travel clubs (AA equiv) who will give you ideas for routes... depends what you want for accomodation.. there are many hotels which advertise as "biker friendly", esp in Austria & Germany. here you will find like minded inviduals, car & bike, who will hapily share a beer or 5 with you.. We ended up in such a place in Grossglockner, spent 2 days going up and down the mountain passes.. you know when you are in for a good time when you see warning signs of bends for next 35kms! met so many nice europeans. only tossers were the British car drivers, who typically dont use their mirrors and think that high revs are thing that happen at Christmas only....

I have a fair bit of holidays still to take, so will probably head off on a jaunt up north at some point before the end of the year.

You have to watch the hours of light though, especially when the clocks change.

The best driving roads in scotland unfortunately will also have the highest deer levels, and you do NOT want to be driving your car at speed in the dark or even dusk on many of our favourite roads IMHO.

Jamie bring your max power wheels up here, we can go to cruises and hang out in McDonalds car parks doing donuts and stuff. You'd get to hear my max power exhaust too. Just make sure you bring a burberry cap.
