Something I usually organise for the RTTs, but forgot until now Rolleyes , is to collate everyone's name, mobile number and emergency contact details to share. So, if you want to, PM me the following:

 

Carpe Name

Real Name

Mobile Tel. No.

Emergency Contact Name.

Emergency Contact Tel. No.

 

I'll collate them and then PM everyone back so we've all got each other's details.

Whats the latest regulations for France/Belgium & Germany (regarding breakdown / safety gear), someone at work mentioned i might need to take a breathalyser now ??



Rtt13 Monschau 14Th - 19Th July Discussion. - MarkyMark - 11-07-2013

Can't keep up with these things, they keep u-turning. Not a clue.


Rtt13 Monschau 14Th - 19Th July Discussion. - Matlock - 11-07-2013

I think you need the breathalyser for France Darren, Halfrauds sell them. I think the froggies also have laws about reflective bits on helmet & clothes but don't enforce them for foreign riders.

<p style="font-size:.813em;color:rgb(108,103,82);font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">January 2013 - the French government announced that the implementation of the sanction for drivers not carrying a breathalyser – a fine of €11 – has been postponed indefinitely.

<p style="font-size:.813em;color:rgb(108,103,82);font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So theoretically you are still required to carry a self-test breathalyser when driving in France but there is no current legislation demanding a fine for non-compliance.

<p style="font-size:.813em;color:rgb(108,103,82);font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The original official announcement stated that one unused, certified breathalyser must be produced showing the French certification mark NF. Carrying two single-use breathalysers will ensure that if one is used or damaged, you will still have a spare to produce. The breathalyser produced has to be in date - single-use breathalysers normally have a validity of twelve months.

<p style="font-size:.813em;color:rgb(108,103,82);font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">

08:00 breakfast

 

Then Eupen for supplies first thing.

 

Off for a proper day out at 10:00 looking for flat straight roads. Went all the way to the Nurburg ring and back - but could not find any.

 

Filled up with petrol just before getting back to Monschau hotel - battery dead. Bump started and made it back to the hotel. Oh no - not the dreaded alternator - again..................

 

Thinking what to do.................................?????????????????????????????????????????????
