Rides: GasGas 250 and Royal Enfield Himalayan 450.
Mark lives near Mat and is an enduro fan first. Most weekends he is out on his GasGas 250.
For touring he rides a Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, which is light, simple and happy on a bad road. His first tour abroad was Normandy off the overnight ferry to Caen, and he has ridden in the Alps and northern Spain since.
He writes about Europe and about what goes wrong on a first tour, from experience.
The best motorcycle tours in Europe for UK riders: ten routes that start where the ferry or tunnel lands, with the best months and a free GPX.
