Posted: 01:48 - 21 Jul 2006 Post subject: Last Minute! Space on a trip to Spain, leaving this Sunday |
|
|
Due to Gaz not being able to make it due to mechanical reasons and overly-bureaucratic insurance companies, his space in our group of 3 is available.
Portsmouth to Bilbao, 29 hours, ferry leaving 12pm Midday, 23rd July, this Sunday, sharing a cabin of 3. Ferry is one way (www.atferries.com/)
Ship is a mini cruise liner, has swimming pool, Casino etc.
We're going on a loop of Spain and Portugal, dropping into places such as Madrid, Gibralter, Ronda, Barcelona, then going back through the Pyrennes to Nice in South-East France before heading back up through the Alps, Mont Blanc and Switzerland. Strictly on a budget, camping as much as possible to keep costs down (expected over 80% of time).
Basic route:-
https://www.motocapers.com/bcfroutes/triproute.JPG
Trip duration - 3 weeks, 3,500 miles.
Total expected cost inc new tyres and ferrys etc - under £1k.
If you fancy it you're free to come along with us or go your own way after getting off the ferry. Just be aware we're on more of a backpacker-style holiday than luxury hotels, on a suspect GPZ500 and 84,000km VFR400
Ticket is advance cost price @ £157.
Go on, you know you want to

As a little taster into what our trips comprise of you can have a read of our trip to Rome last year here https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=56578
Perhaps if you are a little nervous about doing a tour for the first time with no experience, joining Maurice and myself who have done this twice before could be ideal? |

Totally pointless post but I'd most definetely go if I had a few bits and pieces:
Passport
My bikes history
Come on, someone take up this offer.
I'd sell my left kidney to go around the south of France. Spend some time near cannes/Nice.
EDIT- Blimmin enjoy it lads and ride safe. |

Cheers . Problem with a day trip to Morocco is the paperwork hassle and bribes/admin fees/touts you have to deal with/pay. Think we're gonna leave Morocco until we can do it properly another time, though you never know. |

Ive heard about a stacked bike - my source is reliable, but my information is not too good at the moment. I also remember 'hot american women' being mentioned too |
