In 2007 I was left some money and I decided to do a motorcycle trip around Britain and France. I bought a second-hand BMW 650 in England and set off along the coast heading west.
I was originally going to spend just a couple of weeks in Britain, but I liked it so much that I eventually spent two months there.
I spent a further two months riding around France, with some side trips to Barcelona, Amsterdam and Brugge.
My favourite part was France. All of it! If France wasn't so far away, and wasn't so expensive, and I didn't have to speak French, I'd live there. For sure.
Start at the beginning, the earliest post, and work your way forward.

Salisbury
A pub in Salisbury.
The New Inn.
I think it is regarded as new if it was built after 1300.
Oy! You old fart! You can't park there! It's motorcycles only!

Rob, love your blog and Alan Bateman is forwarding the emails of your travels. Glad you found Clun and west shropshire as well as north wales and the Lake District. I have been following your journey with some nostalgia and enjoyment. You are obviously following your nose as a free spirit and travelling the right way. Cheers Stephen #1
