If you want more info on this Nick, me and her indoors are off over there end of June. Don't bother with AA or RAC euro cover as there are better for less.

These guys are meant to be the best and guys on the Triumph forum highly recommend as one bloke had to use them.

Also, if you get insurance through Carol Nash or Bennetts I believe you get pucker euro breakdown included. :-bd

No problem Andy, We're not ageist here so be good to have you along. So long as the mobility scooter is petrol powered, shouldn't be an issue =)) :)) PM me, txt or call if you have any more questions.

This is still on so let me know. Over a year to go so plenty of time to save, or pay in instalments if it suits. I don't mind playing banker.
Hotel will hold open the room bookings for a while but they have asked me already if any one's coming apart from me.

PM me with any questions you might have, or post them up on here, as there is a wealth of knowledge and maybe a touch of ignorance to, to keep it spicy...

It's going to be a great trip weather you're into your touring, head down+arse up ragging or just want the break, come and join the fun in your car and enjoy the break. Be great to have a baggage carrier... :D
