I’m Back! My First Big Motorcycle Trip Since Being Ill | Alps Part 1

We’re finally heading to the Alps! This was my first "proper" big trip since being in the hospital, and I'll be honest—the nerves were real. From feeling homesick on the boat to finding my rhythm in the mountains, this is Part 1 of our European adventure.

The journey takes us from the ferry through the stunning town of Vianden in Luxembourg, and down into the Vosges mountains in France. We dealt with 35°C heat, some questionable navigation, and the classic "camp vs. hotel" debate.

Joining me on this trip are the Yachtmaster, Smillie, and Chris. It wasn't all smooth sailing, but getting back on those winding hill roads made every nervous mile worth it.
