I had a 2 day round trip from the Vienna area to Imst in Tyrol and now I am back. 1260km in two days ..
Beautiful landscape, Several mountain passes and perfect weather conditions. Nevertheless I will reduce the milage per day in the future for fun trips. My back and my legs tell me I'm getting older.

Some impressions:

I'm really missing driving alpine passes . Hopefully soon this BS will be over & we can get back to touring.

Wonderful trip, I went to the Co-Op to buy nuts, 3km overall.

Rich, I imagined you've slimmed down a little since then. Apparently there are two chassis sizes available now, one is wider by 100mm and aimed at the Big and Tall (or old and large), perhaps the vehicle I saw was that model.

Kevin, I would definitely be in need of the 100mm extra and I was concerned about the Plus Four revised roof impinging on the proper sized drivers, that doesn't seem to be a good move.
With 48" chest 6' and 15 stones I don't see that working out for me. I test drove one of those Fiat Abarth MX5 cars and it was built for young Japanese people not Europeans was my decision, lovely "little" car but to say I was cramped is understatement.

I keep my eye on the Plus Four for when the day comes that I can't bob under the Plus 8 anymore, hopefully years ahead.

Really enjoyed your images of the mountains and valleys, thanks for sharing, good to see m/cyclists enjoying the roads, camper vans, much less so... but then with so many buying them these days, they are hard to avoid, less so since Covid and staycations seem to have caused them to seek out formerly deserted roads, which seems to be the case in my part of the world. Just pleased I was able to enjoy the quiet roads for many a year in my Morgan.. (-:
