As the longer trip isn't really looking like a biking trip for me, I decided to look towards the countries I know to provide a great ride (again). Since I ended up passengering two years ago, having a second go with Switzerland and Italy sounded good in my head. This plan has already gone through several wildly different drafts, but I think the main form is getting clear enough to post about it.
Google maps is being rather difficult at this time of year, but you should get the idea from this. Basically a sort of figure 8, starting from Italy, heading west through Switzerland. Back to Italy and then to Austria via Switzerland again.
Apart from great roads, there is a plan of visiting a Moto Guzzi museum at the Italian lakes, intersecting some Texans on the way. Some mountain railways and rollercoasters are also handily on the route.
While nothing is set in stone yet, the base schedule of the current plan is setting off from Italian Dolomites on Thursday, August 1st, to make it to Italian lakes for Sunday, before Italians close the Moto Guzzi place for their holidays.
