...to the High Tatras Mountains

[Tusayan]

No.  I've been through the valley a couple of times, but both times I was on the smaller road along the south side, avoiding the E66 motorway that goes through Klagenfurt.  Perhaps, next time...

Incidentally, the day I was in Villach, there were a LOT of Harley-Davidsons on the road.  Evidently, one of the larger European H-D rallies was happening that week.  That is, I'm guessing it was for H-D as that's what the majority of motorcycles were, when usually BMWs out-number everything else.

The Harley people (as with other German and Austria vehicle groups) like to have rallies (Treffen) on the Austrian lakes in that region.  This one seems like a pretty good candidate for ‘your’ event, on the Faakersee last month.

Thanks for the journey,  I can’t recall if it was  Norm or Cliff telling Sam on Cheers they lived vicariously thru him and his adventures. I enjoyed this, enough to go thru it twice, again thanks for the journey.
