Travel UK advice needed

Postby moon » Mon Jan 28, 2008 2:11 pm

Folks I'm a S rider (MC Instructor-trainer) from Louisiana planning a riding trip to the UK during the last 2 weekend of June.

Probably fly to London or Bristol w/ another riding friend (he has a Boxer in London area in storage) and hopefully get to ride through London area, N. Wales, to Scotland to Land's End. (End to End ride).

Any advice on bike rentals or maybe a used bike to purchase or purchase/buy-back would be greatly appreciated.

:idea: :?: :!:

Hi,

A Canadian from the FJR Forum worked in London from time to time. He used http://www.racewaysrentals.com/. He used them more than once, for FJR ride-outs, so I can only assume he found them OK.

If your looking for 'Value' rental. The Hexagon Motorcycles,.. CBF600 for around £100 per week (Based Hammersmith close Heathrow)
020 87414141

Alternate, Riverbank Motorcycles rent most makes/models
020 8938 4896

Neither are 'Glamorous',.. but reasonable prices i think

Enjoy your trip

Who needs glamor. I need reliable transportation for about 1 and a half weeks (7-10 days) . My guess is about 1500 - 2000+ miles?

Thanks for the tips
