we also even if we come with the car behind the bike we will try to go through the back roads to know your area

Well then, that might make for some interesting meanderings. Last year when in Turkey we took a drive in a rental car and I had my GPS with me. I forgot I had the setting on 'shortest route'. That is not something you want in Turkey but it did make for a very interesting scenic trip as we climbed up and then down a very steep mountain track

Remember Bernard, only you have miss the right road !

That is the way to make it interesting
Providing the right GPS coordinates will help as well... And not allowing your little brother to lead the pack with an English make motorcycle and an American make GPS when you have combined Norwegian & Dutch intelligence and 2 TomTom SatNavs does the trick too...
Love my new TTR400!
But unfortunately, its the closest by VCIM meeting for me since 2003...
In 2003 I had to travel for 80 (!) km...
This year only 295
And with an Kiwi on a Transalp backin' up!

I don't know (or care
) what a TTR400 is
I believe this VCIM will be great, as usual, because of the people, as usual.
On the other hand, you have longer trips in the next two ones! (specially 2017 is very very very promising!
even though the exact place is known only to within 500 km, to my knowledge at least
)

Very well spoken, Josep!
A TTR400 (TomTom, SatNav on smartphone, or any Garmin) is a device, which helps you to avoid boring motorways, and preventing some persons making comments that certain parts of Europe are boring.... because they travel by paper maps...
Not yet time for me to prepare my trip, but I probably ride first the deutsche alpenstrasse (from west to east). I listen for all proposition from end of this road to Winterberg
So now you can listen and see.
Please see the link below.
http://www.gpsies.com/map.do?fileId=xcensaevyztxjgjyThis is the "Deutsche Motorradstrasse" part IV, which is a circel, but which touches at the south east your way east via the "Deutsche Alpenstrasse".
You can addapt this following trip-proposal up to the middle of Germany along the border to Austria and via the "Bayrische Wald" (border to Czech Republic) up to SCHOTTEN, a great MC-meetingpoint
http://www.biker-treff.de/treff/Falltorhaus+Mototreff+an+der+B+276.htmlwhich is located at the "Vogelsberg".
From there on itīs only few km to VCIM18.
Please feel free to take a part of it and program your Garmin/TT or just take a part of the GPS-data which you can download.
Greetings from the South of Germany

Thx Rainer, I will have a look when it will be time to prepare my trip; to busy now !
