Mate..Talk about organizedwesty wrote:Zhead and I are going to Europe next June July for six weeks and wanted to ride, but found the cost or renting prohibitive so I looked into taking our bikes over and having them to ride. There is a shipping company here in brisbane that can ship the bikes to UK for less than AU$1000.00. we will be leaving about june 20th but the bikes have to go 31 days earlier, I have to tee up with a bike shop in London to recieve and prep the bikes, (a mate is there now sorting this out) if the bikes are registered and I have a certificate from main roads we can ride them anywhere. I have to take out insurance when I get to UK but that will cover the bike as it passes through most european countries. Italy and some other countries require you get third party insurance locally as you pass through but this can be sorted out at the borders, otherwise, it isnt too difficult so long as you dont sell the bike and dont stay in any country more than 3 months. Italy also requires an international drivers licence. BY having our own bikes we figure we can look for cheaper accomodation out side of the main centers, and we will have total freedom. Plus the kool pics of your own bike in front of major tourist attractions. Be happy to pass on my info and research and it would be great to plan a ride, there is a huge tunnel in Switzeland that Zhead wants to ride through and I have seen that particular road heaps of times. Also I have registered on some bike forums in the uk and germany and everyone kindly offered beds and floors and are keen to organise rides while we are in their areas......as bike riders we are part of a greater enthuiastic friendly community.
