Motorcycle Round the Alps – September 2015

September 2015. A loop through the Alps — UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Austria — stitched together over 9 days and 2,800 km.

Eight passes in total: Stelvio, Flüela, Julier, San Bernardino, Gotthard, Furka, Grimsel, and Col de l'Iseran. The Iseran at 2,770m is the highest paved mountain pass in Europe — and somehow September gave almost nothing but clear skies for the whole trip.
