Menton to Florence. A bit tricky getting through Genoa.  I hope the crazy scooter riders are giving your Mog a wide berth.  Firenze is a great place  You are braver than me we left the Mog at the hotel & went in by bus in June. That Motorway from Genoa up towards Milan is something else isn't it. You meant to post that I take it?

Last hot day of summer so decided (unfortunately like many others) to head for the coast. Cross country route quiet but really tested the still tight front suspension, not to mention tooth security Main beach car park at Wells-next-the-sea (not at low tide though) so full they closed entry completely. Binned that plan and found ourselves at Holt, a little further inland but only a steam train ride away from the coast at Sheringham. Free shaded parking to boot   Returning with the makings of tonights seafood salad we took the smoother A road back. Great day out enjoyed by partner Val and dog Benji 500 miles on new car in 5 days, 1000 mile service already booked.

Bet you're glad you didn't go to Walberswick today? Bomb scare on the beach! Yes I saw that. Must have been the pirates!

Lovely pics.
I would imagine that Brompton is ideal for exploring busy cities..? Having blagged KevFitz's for a short trial, I'm feeling the love..

Once you understand the rules of engagement it’s a great way to sightsee. Following what looked like a local, I realised the rules are: ignore traffic lights, ignore no entry signs, ignore pedestrianised spaces, basically ignore everything as it’s every man for himself. I don’t know how tourists on foot can stand traipsing around given the heat today. I’m lead to believe Rome may be a challenge.

A cracking classic down the bonnet shot showing off the typical Norfolk scape to good effect, reminds me of my former years when I lived there. Glad you are enjoying the Roadster - quite a culture change from the M3W.
