Col, that night in Germany at that folklore festival was quality. Who'd have known we'd turn up in crazy town? I'd love to do it all again, just a map mind, no Satnav
I have to say that negotiating the seven lane motorway going back in to the ferry port in Rotterdam, on a standard 200, was the scariest thing I have done on 2 wheels !

Amen to that and that stretch of motorway is my least favourite piece of road ever.

I'm also about to start scootering again after 30 years out of the saddle! Have myself an Italian 150dl, shot blasted back to bare metal, re sprayed and have added an RB20. I have one question: With a 12 litre tank and a 4% oil mix (and, yes, I do appreciate this maybe high) how the hell do you carry enough oil to do a near 1500 mile round trip (I live in Cornwall)?

Had a standard tank in this and spent from memory around 16 days messing around in France (Troyes Euro 94) .......... Some of our crowd managed most of the trip buying outboard 2 stroke oil without any hassle
