I may join... depending how late I can leave signing up?? (have to change the camchain on the Honda first... and more..). I also would have preferred camping... I also wonder slightly about the 800km in a day part. I made many trips around Europe, <I> don't have a problem with it... but a mixed group of riders..?? What about the ones who want to stop for a fag every 20 minutes.. and the one who turns up on a 125cc Honda single.. (happened to me on a group trip of big bikes!)

Bookings are required latest by 4.8. in order to secure the hotels.

the 800 km distances are with petrol stops every +/-200 km and are limited to max 20 minutes. only big-bore bikes (min 650 cc) will be on the trip. at the moment we have only GS 1200 and KTM 990 bookings.

Why is that?

Why is that?

petrol stop distances: every 250 km
longest day trip distance: 840 km
cruising speed on long distances: 120-140 km/h

anybody fine with that on "smaller" bikes is welcome to join.
