Some disadvantages have advantages. While Ophelia brings heavy storm to Ireland the Netherlands are experiencing some of the warmest Autumn days ever on the other site of the Channel. We decided to make use of this beautiful sunny Sunday and take Bumblebee and Megatron for a tour partly around the north of the IJsselmeer which…

Escaping Autumn in France
Since we did not have a great summer and Iceland is not really the summer destination on earth, the three of us decided to hit the road to France to catch some sun. For the first time we used a motortrailer which is very practical if you haven’t got a lot of time and want…
Touch down
When I was thinking of buying Bumblebee lots of motorcycles were to tall or heavy for me. My dad said you don’t have to carry your bike and he is right. But if you have to push or pull it out of the garage and move it around it is very nice if you are able to do this…
Last miles to Reykjavik
From Holmavik we drove to West where we stayed at a lake named Skorradalsvatn in a very nice Airbnb. Before arriving we climbed the Grabrok crater which is next to the ring road. Next day we made a little tour in the area of the lake. Riding back to Reykjavik we handed in our motorcycles and explored…

Winding roads that take you through magnificent valleys with volcanic rocks, mountains and striking light fall over the landscape. Around every corner you get jawbreaking surprises. We did a small detour to visit the Dettifoss waterfalls which is…
From South to North; fjords
From Höfn we drove north along various fjords to Egilsstadir. Dramatic landscapes but a lot of strong wind. Gusts of wind bashing in to you after rounding fjords is tricky to ride. Just before we arrived in Egilsstadir we drove through a 6 km tunnel. Which was welcome to warm up because temperature gets pretty…
