    Yeah Al, your there like swim wear!

    Been a real tough few days, road closures, missed motorway junctions and police escorts out of Italy have been just some of the events.

    The roads have been awesome, we've seen some great sights and have finally caught up with our schedule and arrived at Castellane last night. The power of the ring sucked us in, didn't leave until 3 Monday

    Jimbo will continue with tour write up, but until he has a chance a few more pics.

    Looking good fellas.
    Can't help but smile about the 'escort out of Italy' comment.
    Ha, if the last tour was anything go by?
    Probably got pissed with you for sucking the heads off their flowers ;)

    Love the pic with the road carved open out of the snow drift.

    Hope you are enjoying castellane and it is scorching hot down there for you.

    Keep the pics coming and also looking forward to learning more about the escort from Italy...

    Again a quick update update with some more pics until Jimbo does the full update.

    The campsite we're at sells probably the best can of coke in the world

    Roads are cool Al, can't remember all the details of what we used on the way back yesterday but the D2 was one of them.

    Out today in the opposite direction.

    Relaxed ride does that mean the average speed was dropped to 150mph for the day?:D

    I reckon they should be home pretty soon if not already - train arrives mid / late morning I think, then 3 hours to tunnel and back over - assuming they were allowed back into Italy to get the train...
