I am the first to admit that I find Europe’s quaintness annoying sometimes. All the picturesque towns and medieval city centers can get old, figuratively speaking.
However, I will probably never get tired of Europe’s winding roads. You’ll hardly find a better place to motorcycle. If I could define the best globalization has done for me, it would have to involve a Harley Davidson on a European road in Italy somewhere, drinking French wine and eating Thai food. Shallow, but very satisfying.
I was happy to see that The Guardian has come up with a list of best motorcycling roads in Europe.
Top 10 motorcycling roads of Europe:
-
The Cat and Fiddle run – A537, Buxton-Macclesfield, England
-
The Amalfi Coast Road – Naples to Salerno, Italy
-
The Transfagarasan Highway – Sibiu to Curtea de Arges, Transylvania, Romania
-
Bergen to Geiranger, Norway
-
Trabzon to Savsat, Eastern Turkey

Furka Pass, between Gletsch and Andermatt, Switzerland
-
A2, the Antrim coast road, Northern Ireland
-
