Motorcycling Abroad


Going abroad on holiday? You may be tempted to take a nice, comfortable flight there. Take a moment and think about it; what is it that you want out of Europe? There is much to do and even more to see, things that would be better accomplished by making the trip by car or motorcycle. A flight would be quicker, yes; but it would not afford you the incredible sights and culture on the way. To make your holiday more memorable this year, do it your own way at your own pace. You will find that the extra room for luggage and shopping bags will make the trip more fun, too.

If you do plan on making your time overseas a road trip, there are some things that you should consider. Insurance and roadside coverage is the first priority when planning your trip. Standard with your policy, some insurance companies will give you a certain number of days in Europe at no charge; some insurance companies pride themselves on their extended coverage overseas. Even those that are covered by an all-inclusive insurance policy stand the chance of only being covered overseas by third party coverage. To enjoy your trip to Europe and be properly insured, you may have to pay a premium to increase your coverage. It is very important to talk to your insurance company in advance; at least 2 weeks before setting off. It is important to remember the time period that you will be away and the vehicle that you are going to use. This will help your insurer determine the best coverage for you.

Keep in mind that driving abroad may be a very different experience; different laws, signs and even the driving styles of the local people. It is important to know what you are facing before you are faced with it! After you have your policy confirmed, consider additional breakdown cover to give you extra peace of mind.

Research at the Foreign Office website can help very much before driving abroad. Remember that ignorance of the law is not an excuse, therefore you do not want to be caught unaware of any foreign laws. Countries have their own laws and regulations for driving on their roads, and it is important to be prepared and follow them closely. The Foreign Office website will give you crucial information about local behaviour, laws and customs, which can be a great tool to use when planning your road trip abroad!
