    Re: Touring Italy

    A guy I work with did this either last summer or the year before. Not sure if it was through this group, but it was renting a BMW and riding the Alps.
    I dunno how it was, because he's a dick, so I avoid talking to him.

    So was he a dick before he rented the BMW, or did riding it make him that way?

    I've driven Alpine roads in Austria, Switzerland and a small corner of Italy. Lot of fun.

    I was actually thinking of this tour as well, but decided to ride the Alps because of the length of the tour (it is the longest), area (Northern Italy is new to me) and the mountains.

    You can wait until end of July to find out, or you can learn it by yourself

    Hi MF. The Italian Backroads to Misano and the Italian Motorcycle Dream are the same tour. I work together with Cat McLeod for this tour.
