Looking for Bike Rental in Europe During Aug '13

Dear fellow riders,

I'm looking for a bike to rent for aprox 3 weeks during AUG-SEPT 2013. I'm planning to tour the Alps countries. Have more than 4 years of experience. Holding an international riding license.

Thanks,
Ehab

Hi Ehab, Here's a link to the first place that comes to mind here in Italy, hope it helps, at least so you get an idea of what long term rental can cost. G.


Rates up to 28 rental days

I can rent you a bike for 50/day plus insurance.
Insurance will run you approx 100/month
You basically buy the bike, get green card insurance and I'll buy the bike back when your done, minus the 50 euro/day. Way less per day if you stay longer.
This is a cheap system for you, zero liability for me.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive.
