Hi not been on for a long time just lurk now again.
Just got back from a trip taking in the pyrenees route napoleon and canyon du verdon, what can i say but fantastic riding roads all 3 of them. My bird was faultless and was good to let her go on them bends and there are a lot of them.
The views are breathtaking if have time to see them between bends,plenty of places to stop for photos if you want.Will be going back again in the future to do the canyon again as we only done a 4hr route and theres plenty more to do..
I highly recommend that if you get the chance to do any of these do it...
Cheers for now andy.

Hi Andy. The wife and I went to Verdon and route Napoleon on the bird back in June. Got to agree its a fantastic place to go. Pictures would be nice. Posted our tour details and link to pictures on this site.

Absolutely love the Pyrenees. Been several times with the missus as pillion, had my son as pillion one year, then toured the following year with him on his own bike. Then to top it off, toured in a group of 10 in August 2011 with my daughter on her own Fazer. #prouddaddy

Going again in August 2014 with already a confirmed 12, but could end up being as many as 16. Happy days.

Here's a link that Jo (one of our group) put together of our 2011 tour. There's a nice vid on there too. http://www.welshbikertouring.co.uk/tossa-de-mar.html

I put a load of vids on Youtube under my user name but only one or two are half tidy.

As I remember, the links for the routes were killed when I deleted all the routes off my Google maps. Doh!

I suppose I could re-do them if you really wanted em
