Six days, Sedan, France to Rolduc, Netherlands

The ten
United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Italy, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Netherlands. Nine of them on the roadbook, and the United Kingdom for the small matter of getting to Sedan and home from Rolduc.
It isn’t a race. There are no penalties for late arrival and no trophies beyond a finisher’s award. The suggested route deliberately avoids motorways, and roads which may contravene South Tyrol's new rulings for organised tours. It will be twisty.
