Two improvised days in the Jura mountains in France. Small trip group, nature and coolness. Average trip speed ~ 20km/h, average ride speed 60km/h. Calmly and slowly... I've never used to do it. Always hurry and in the rush! Not bad, not bad to be cool!
...it's great feeling. Alps are incredibely. Weekend near to Zermat.
Just Le Recoulet top in the Jura.
"Quelle couleur avez-vous ? Vert ou bleu". I really wanted to see crazy-happy supporters of winner's team of 2006th Football World Cup. It's easy... "Forza Itala"! Where is the closest Italian city? Aosta! Just pass the Mount Blanc tunnel. It's quite expensive, so I connected pleasure and duty. Alps and final football match. 
Next time on the Saturday (the 8th of July 2006) I didn't have any plans. So, I followed for the advices of my Portuguese's co-worker (from Poglish: cow-workers) advices. At first Divone, nice, calm Village near to my place. Than, I realised that I still have more than a half day. Not so far and really great must be Jura mountains. It was good plan, Jura is incredibely. You can't compare it with Alps, because it is different kind of mountains. Lower, more calm, not so naked and not so hardnosed. Maybe that's why so nice. I didn't count on my funny luck to met someone, because I gave it for my friend to finish study but I meet really helpfully person, also on the motorcycle, half French and Moroccan, Abdel. Now I know more about Jura and Morocco (cheap ferries FR-MOR: www.euromer.fr), temperature in Jura is much lower than in the rest of France and I can even felt on my skin (in the winter until -30C!!!)
This Wednesday (the 5th of July) was one of the biggest days in my short life. My small dream came true! I always wanted to see LHC. Now, when I work here it was much closer, but still so far away. If you want to go down to the LHC you need a lot of accesses, permissions and authorisations. Luckily I made all formalities I needed and see what I wanted. But I'm still looking forward to see more interesting places at CERN! Till now I've been to Point 4, 5, 8 and the CMS experiment. If you wanted to know more about LHC, the biggest project at CERN, visit this web site and find somethings via GOOGLE!
On the last Saturday (the 1st of July) in the morning I realized that it's a weekend. I phoned all my friends and colleagues and... I went alone somewhere. I always wanted to go Cote d'Azure and Provance in the south of France. So, the dreams come true. Two days in the mountains, only me, a wild nature, my Africa Twin and all the stuff I need for camping-hiking. Just from the beginning it was quite stupid because I had good map of French Alps... but not this area where I wanted to go, I had GPS with good map of France... but not this area where I wanted to go and without auto routing. In big shortcut it was without any plans and without any preparations. 
I really don't like it! The plan was to go from Geneva (CH) throught Grenoble (FR), Sisteron (FR), Marseille (FR), Toulon (FR), San Tropez (FR), Cannes (FR), Nice (FR), Monte Carlo (MC) and go back to Geneva. It's about 1000km in two days. On the map on the left you have: the red line - what I made, the green - what I also wanted to do. Normally, I can easily make 500km... So, question why I didn't do it? 
Flat tire! I had almost everything I needed to travel but I didn't have tools to repair the flat tire or assistance. Few advices: if you want to travel in west Europe without any surprises you need only money and assistance. Because if it's weekend in the France it's impossible to find someone to help you. Or next solution: you need all the tools to repair something and automatically to be independent and you also need to have the head on the neck and... good luck! So, I think I'll need only tools...
