Well, I am currently in the planning stages of a thoroughly ridiculous Europe spanning (Scandinavia) trip in Summer next year and I am hoping to be passing through the alpine regions of Germany, Switzerland and Italy on my loop towards the South of France before heading home.

The nature of the arctic circle (cold... ice... etc Lol) means I will be in the alpine regions around the end of June or early July but my dates are relatively flexible at the moment so I could juggle them to fit in with other people if there is the interest, even if there isn't an official "meet" it'd be good to meet up with people either en route or even just for a few beers one evening if the planets can align that precisely!

Well, it looks like "May-June" is leading the polls and that's the time I usually take my vacation, so there's a possibility I can be there.

I'm planning on riding from Italy to Brittany & Normandy in France, so there's a chance I can swing thru the Alps either on my way there or on my way back  Smile

Well I'm there the last two weeks of June.  Right now I'm trying to figure out if I rent the bike for the first week or the second. If I did the second I'd be more familier with how the place works before I throw myself to the wolves.  Plus figuring out routes and what not will be easier having a clue as to what the place feels like.

nuthin to it  Smile

the basics are the same. Stop at red lights. Go on green. German roads are well marked but you're gonna get lost and make wrong turns anyway. Just think of it as part of the experience and enjoy it   Smile

Italy is more funner though cuz you can do whatever you want and no one bats an eyelash...plus you get to use internationally recognized Italian hand gestures (jk)  Bigsmile

I'll be in Switzerland the last two weeks of June 2008.  I'll be renting a bike for 1 of those 2 weeks.  So I'm there.

I'll be there if a plan forms, I just need 4 or 5 days notice... thats enough time to tell work I won't be in and for me to drive down there Wink
Seriously though, I think it'd be great if some of us could meet up. My calendar is empty so far next year as financial issues have put a stop to my Scandinavian fantasies for this year Shrug

Heck, there are 18 right there which is a good showing. And it may not include spouses. I know Rita didn't vote so that's 19. There may be 18 couples which would be a heck of a showing all things considered Smile

I´m interested in it, too. Work is looking good, so that I can take time off. End of June is fine!

Just find the dates and I´ll find a way to show up.


What would be the Min / Max limits of the group???
