Hello from Italy.

Well I’m still over here touring.

So far I’ve been to
England
Wales
Scotland
France
Belgium
Luxembourg
Nurburgring-3 weeks
Germany
Denmark
Sweden
Czech Republic
Austria
Switzerland
Italy

Now I’m in Aosta, Italy for a week.

The original plan was to ship my RS America back to California at the end of October. That’s changed. Now I’m going to spend the winter in Italy and Spain and maybe end the tour around November next year.

My insurance covers me in 29 countries and the custom laws in Europe allow you to visit each country for 4 months out of 12.

I drove Davos Pass through the Swiss Alps yesterday. What a drive. San Bernardino Pass isn’t far from Aosta so that’s on the list. There are a lot of mountain roads around Aosta, sounds like a plan.

I have no idea where I’m going next. This whole trip has been a exercise of winging it. I have rarely known what I’m going to do more than a few days in advance, I love it. A friend suggested Como, ok, it could happen.

See ya, Don
