Questions:
Anyone with a 900 bringing a spare clutch cable.
Do you have to wear hi-viz in France/Spain.
Rtt 09 - sidestand - 12-04-2009
You don't have to WEAR a high viz in France & Spain, but you do have to carry one in an easily accessible place fer if you break down.
Can't answer the clutch question Cats, as I'm not going [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

if you're camping you don't need to contact them, see my previous email messages with the campsite below

Bonjour Dave,
You don't have to reserve a spot if you come with a tent. For cabines,
caravans etc. you have to reserve. See you soon, the beer stands cold!!!
Greetzzz,
Renske & Pieter

Just reading thru' and someone mentioned Ortlieb ? ? I'm actually a stockist of their stuff (and Exped) The panniers they do are quite good on the 900 with the bag on top......If enough people want waterproof compression bags I may be able to do you all a good turn.
P.S not trying to drum up sales for me self.......just trying to be nice to fellow TDMers.....
