    Starting From Besancon France we travelled south to Chambery, then to Lanslebourg
    dropping into Susa Italy to ride the Col del Finestre. Val d isere
    was our next stop riding up the dirt tracks of the disused ski slopes
    to 2776m and then back down and round to Albertville via Bourg St
    Maurice.
    From Albertville we travelled north into Geneva Switzerland then to
    Lausanne returning to our start point in Besancon
    We tried to encounter as many mountain passes as possible and avoided
    any motorways
    Distance covered was 750miles/1207km with no problems with the
    vanvan's other than adjusting the chain on the yellow K6
    (the only bike with an o/e chain)

    cool photos; I don't think I'd want to ride down an Alp trusting tiny little brake rotors like those bikes have!

    welcome to the forum :freaky
