Planning a 2 to 3 week trip in 2017. I am in the UK but may ship the bike to Geneva to cut the boring bit out (could be changed).
I am still refining the route, but highlights of the trip are:
Geneva to Lake Como onto
Austria and Hungary (Belgrade) then heading down to
Sibiu in Romania, doing the
Transfăgărășan Highway in Romania.
Quite fancy a short 3 day off road bike hire in Sibiu (via KTM Adventure Tours) before heading back to Geneva.
Options for the return are 1) Via Bari - Bar in Monte Negro taking the Ferry to Italy 2) Coast of Croatia 3) Some inland route.
I am riding a KTM 1190 Adventure R and am 51 with some off road riding capabilities. I am looking for fellow travellers that are happy with 250-350 road miles per day, that like a couple of

s on a night and a good laugh (nothing excessive).
The above details are sketchy and no means finalised and would be happy to discuss both timing and the exact route. On my basic reckoning, this is about 2-3 weeks. I was looking for inexpensive accommodation, rather not go camping or rough it in flea pits, but simple clean and scenic.
I indicated a start from Geneva purely because I liked the idea of shipping the bike down and an early flight from the UK, with the first day going from Geneva to Lake Como (starts the trip with a bang) and avoids losing a couple of days of boring motorway riding to Calais.
I am based in the South East in Surrey.
Anyone interested?
