Why don't you go on road trips anymore?

I used to go motorbike touring all the time. Often to Spain (UK Plymouth to Santander ferry) to France (Dover Calais) and also Germany via Hull.I would also go around the UK a lot.I stopped going after doing my really really big road trip. This was a RTW overland trip. It took a toll on my health due to heavy drinking from Russians and Mongolians.I stopped going to Europe because my life got busier and those trips became really expensive. In my 20s those road trips were cheap vacations. Go riding around France. Petrol + food + ferry and you’d spend 2 weeks and £400.Do the same today? You’re looking at £1500+ The ferry to Spain used to be £100 each way. It’s now £350 each way and the fuel costs are insane.I can fly to Italy stay in a hotel much cheaper than this.I ride a lot less in the UK primarily because riding in the UK hasn’t been pleasant for a while. I always seem to get stuck in massive traffic jams and ache a lot more after riding for hours.

What's a good itinerary for a 2 or 3 week roadtrip around Germany, Switzerland, and Austria?

I do this often and always make the decision to spend much less time in Switzerland. Too expensive and not terribly noteworthy. I also become rather selective about where I plan to spend my time. Two or three weeks seem like an eternity until you start spending too many days going to out-of-the way locations like Neuschwanstein.Fly Open Jaw: Vienna in; Berlin out.Days 1-3. Vienna. There are great museums, castles, live music, restaurants, the Opera, and a day trip to Bratislava if you choose.Days 4,5. Salzburg. [alternative would be Zell am See for a skier]Days 6,7. Munich. Dachau, Marienplatz, etc.Days 8,9. Zurich.Days 10,11 Bacharach am Rhein. River Cruise. Rhine castle tours. Cologne Cathedral.Days 12,13. Nuremberg. Museums. Zeppelin Field. Days 14, 15. Prague. Old City tour. Dinner boat on the River. Days 16,17. Dresden and Leipzig with detour to Wittenberg or Goerlitz.Days 18-21. Berlin. Museum Island. The Wall. Obviously, destinations depend on the interests of the traveler. Most of my trips to Germany include time in Bremen, Freiburg, and Trier, which are personal favorites and wonderful cities in their own right.

Which places to visit during a roadtrip between UK, Spain, Switzerland, and Germany?

Harburg Schwaben and NördlingenThe German Romantic Road is one of the biggest magnets for tourism in the southern provinces of Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg.Based (very) loosely on the old Roman route between the participating towns and adding in some stunning medieval locations to the north, the concept of the Romantic Road is a little bit like the British "ploughman's lunch" - a marketing idea which appears to be based on history and tradition but which is actually a much more modern invention.In the case of the Romantic Road, Germany was desperate to rebuild a tourism industry in the post-war times and the idea of the formal "route" was created in 1950 (not long after the creation of the Federal Republic of Germany and the end of the military-administered occupation).The first visitors were friends and families of the American soldiers stationed in the large bases in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg but the idea of the trail from Würzburg to Füssen soon became wildly popular.It's not too hard to see the reason for the popularity - despite the modern roots of the idea, the tour combines the historic cities of Würzburg and Augsburg with the three medieval walled towns of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Dinkelsbühl and Nördlingen, and then finishes off with the tourist highlights of Neuschwanstein Castle and the Alps.
