• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Shipping my Spyder RT from Florida on March 4 th Knofptours. Will go
Over in May to ride for 3 months or so. My 3rd time over doing this but before was buying a 2 wheeler and leaving it over there. Can’t ride a 2 wheeler anymore. Anyone need any info on Europe riding let me know. Nick
 
Thx. This will be my first trip around Europe on a Spyder. Really looking forward to it. Where do you live in Europe? Thx. Nick
 
I live in Italy nick!
What kind of tour you’ll make? Nature? Art tourism? Mixed?
If you want,I could suggest some suggestive and iconic locations where you can ride in the middle of the mountains.
For the driving pleasure you could visit the alps, between east france,northern italy,austria and switzerland.
You can search on google:

Lacets de montvernier -France
Passo Stelvio - Italy
Passo Pordoi - Italy (2nd pass for altitude in Europe)
Passo Giau- Italy
Passo Sella -Italy
Carezza lake- Italy
Resia lake- Italy
Garda lale - Italy
Como lake- Italy
Colle del nivolet - Italy
Passo del rombo - Italy/Austria (the highest motorcycle museum on the top of the mountain)
Col de la bonette - France
Col de L’iseran - France (highest pass in Europe)
Furka pass/Gottardo/novena- Switzerland
Zermatt- switzerland
Markmatt lake- Switzerland
Passo Sempione - Italy
Spluga pass -switzerland/italy


And more and more ��
If you had 3 months,why don’t make the Atlantic road,nord kapp,trollstigen and a lot of other in Norway.
Some friends visit last years Spain and they say me is beautiful too.
I think all europe is beautiful.

I do not want to bore you,but if you need any kind of informations (for sure itineraries and places) you can contact me.
imho alps are the best place in Europe to ride,but I repeat, europe is beautiful.
As soon as this situation in Ukraine ends, I will also book towards the month of June to make me a week on the Alps!

Thanks Gabrielle, Flying to Heidelberg to pick up my RT I shipped over there. Will be there for at least a couple of months. Rode my a Honda Varadero 1000 I kept in Cork with Martin for 3 Yrs and rode Europe twice for about 3 months each of the 2 summers I rode there. But just turning 80:and don’t want to hold up a 2 wheeler anymore so SOld the Honda I kept there and shipped over my RT. Maybe I’ll try and get in touch when I get over thete and see you in T
Italy. Where in Italy do you live? Thx. Nick
 
Ride a long straightaway on the Autobahn and peg your throttle.

Let us know just how fast a Spyder tops out at.

Thanks, and have fun !! (I'm jealous actually, since I've been to Europe 3 times ....).
