You should be in possession of your passport, driving licence, registration V5 document, and Form E111 (available from the Post Office and shows to foreign hospitals that you are in our NHS. Can save a lot of work if the worst was to happen!) Riding on the right is not a problem and actually comes easy. Just beware when leaving junctions and garages etc. Motorists in Germany (France & Belgium for that matter) are ‘biker friendly’ as are hotels and café’s etc. Take some ‘tie down’ long straps. Handy for tying down the ‘bike on the ferry, front wheel to stand etc. so can’t move. Come in useful also for tow ropes, for lashing down that purchase you made onto the back seat, or generally fastening the ‘bike back together! Visa/Mastercard widely accepted. Normally stop on the motorways to re-fuel, pay by visa and buy a sandwich and drink, with the petrol. I normally buy petrol with Visa and then towards the end of the trip if I’m going to have any money left I’ll use that. Try a little of the language! No one laughs at you and you’ll get better service! I could give you hints and tips on packing etc. but I’m not, tough life eh! Suffice to say…. “Put all the money you’re taking on the sideboard, and all your clothes on the bed. Now half the clothes and double your money”. Never found anyone yet able to contradict that statement! You can parcel up mucky washing to send home, or dispose of the old clothes, knickers, socks etc. that you took, and buy new. You’ll get better goods at a cheaper price than here in Blighty! Carry details of your hotel etc. with you at all times. If you get lost then someone will be able to tell you how to get back, and you’ll have a ‘phone number to ring! Ride in a group, or alone… no probs. If you do ride in a group then ensure that the person behind you sees where you go at junctions, roundabouts etc. If the person in front of you turns left at a junction then wait to see that the person behind you sees you turn left also. The person behind will go straight on if they haven’t! Start the ride with a full tank and an empty bladder! Buy good quality maps of the area, and study. You’ll find some interesting roads and places to visit.
		Germany's best!
		Romania
		Romanian kids try the bike!
		Spain
		Lost in France

“Put all the money you’re taking on the sideboard, and all your clothes on the bed.
Now half the clothes and double your money”

If you’re on one of our tours then please enjoy, it’s being organized for you.

If you want to go off on your own, stop in a village for coffee, then please do so.

If at the end of the tour you haven’t enjoyed yourself then it’s your fault.

You must do as you please, do your own thing, and to this end every endeavour will be made to help you.

We can only suit some of the people some of the time, never all the people all of the time, but we’ll try!
