Road trip, What did we get up to? LOL. France. On our BMW’s R1250RT and K1600

Roads you can only dream of.
We travel from Harrys Bar to La Rochelle in France.
I ride my BMW R1250RT and My mate rides his BMW K1600.
Are they the perfect choice for this type of road trip?
What an amazing place La Rochelle is.
We are in hunt of the pedal bin that has been in the same pub since the second World War. Do we find the pub and do we find the bin.
We stay at an Ibis budget 10 minutes from the harbour area of La Rochelle .

Where are we going [Music] I dreamt that we spoke again on the sand next to the ocean of summer looking back at mine. I miss those times when there was nobody to hold us back. Nobody to complicate it. Nobody to keep us down. Nobody to tell us how. Nobody to get frustrated. Nobody to stop us. Lost in fact. [Music] Nobody. Nobody else. I woke up from another dream when you weren’t there sleeping next to me. I closed my eyes but I couldn’t see you. Could you take me back to when there was nobody to hold us back? Nobody to complicate it. Nobody to keep us down. No, nobody to tell us how. Nobody to give it. Nobody to stop us now. Nobody. Nobody. [Music] Nobody. Nobody else. Yeah, I’ve been going crazy. Well, we made it to Larishelle. We’re in a Ibis budget hotel. We are pizzas, drinks. Nice little ride here, wasn’t it? Mhm. Really nice. Apparently, we think there’s a music festival going on in Larishelle. So, we’ll have to um wait and see. a 10-minute walk to the seafront or the harbor area. So, uh yeah, it’s been good. Very good.
