    Brittany; no speed camera's, roads like race tracks, car drivers who pull over for you and let you past, the list goes on

    The Mrs and me are off to France last week in aug and first week in sept mate, we are gunna head down west coast stay there couple of days, then head inland just south of limoges to a biker friendly b and b for a week. Then head northwest to paris for a couple of nights.
    We've never done it before on the bike have been camping all over France last few years and it's awesome, but on the bike I know it will be a challenge!!!
    Do you have any advice for first timers????

    Cheers....

    Basically, make sure you understand the traffic signs and what they mean, you can get on the spot fines! I always find that if you try to speak their language they'll be more inclined to be nice to you. If you need any help with maps etc just send me a pm.
    Were you and the Mrs in Orrell Park Motorcycles last week buying a helmet and stuff?
