Through the traffic and heat of the Cote D'Azur & Monaco up in to the cool traffic free Alps. This is fuckin ace! Just been over Europe's highest sealed road 9400ft. Italy tonight hopefully.

Heavy rain over petit st Bernard pass into italy. Glenns tent ground sheet evidently more like a chamois cloth. Up Grand st Bernard pass into Switzerland today. Fantastic roads & scenery again. Will it ever just get mundane? !
Bike reviews:
Trevs Ducati : persistent clutch air bubble needing bleeding eveey 2 days.
Chris Triumph: starter solenoid iffy needing bump start.
Glenns Blade: front brake switch off duff.
Guffs £900 insurance write off X-11: bugger all wrong. B'Stard!
