    I live in Italy nick!
    What kind of tour you’ll make? Nature? Art tourism? Mixed?
    If you want,I could suggest some suggestive and iconic locations where you can ride in the middle of the mountains.
    For the driving pleasure you could visit the alps, between east france,northern italy,austria and switzerland.
    You can search on google:

    Lacets de montvernier -France
    Passo Stelvio - Italy
    Passo Pordoi - Italy (2nd pass for altitude in Europe)
    Passo Giau- Italy
    Passo Sella -Italy
    Carezza lake- Italy
    Resia lake- Italy
    Garda lale - Italy
    Como lake- Italy
    Colle del nivolet - Italy
    Passo del rombo - Italy/Austria (the highest motorcycle museum on the top of the mountain)
    Col de la bonette - France
    Col de L’iseran - France (highest pass in Europe)
    Furka pass/Gottardo/novena- Switzerland
    Zermatt- switzerland
    Markmatt lake- Switzerland
    Passo Sempione - Italy
    Spluga pass -switzerland/italy


    And more and more ��
    If you had 3 months,why don’t make the Atlantic road,nord kapp,trollstigen and a lot of other in Norway.
    Some friends visit last years Spain and they say me is beautiful too.
    I think all europe is beautiful.

    I do not want to bore you,but if you need any kind of informations (for sure itineraries and places) you can contact me.
    imho alps are the best place in Europe to ride,but I repeat, europe is beautiful.
    As soon as this situation in Ukraine ends, I will also book towards the month of June to make me a week on the Alps!

    Ride a long straightaway on the Autobahn and peg your throttle.

    Let us know just how fast a Spyder tops out at.

    Thanks, and have fun !! (I'm jealous actually, since I've been to Europe 3 times ....).
