Hi guys.

New to the forum, I have just purchased my first HAT and looking to go on a trip in may for a week somewhere in Europe.

Dont want to go alone just wondered if anyone was interested in joining me.

Thanks

Always important to wear a hat.

Maybe rather than Europe, a trip to Fez or Panama?

Welcome to the forum. :D

Lol sorry guys, new to all this forum thing!!

I have just purchased a brand new Honda Africa Twin hence HAT haha.

It's the tri colour 2018 model got a great deal on it so no brainer.

I'm 45 and single and looking for a travel partner for a road trip, maybe sail to spain, across to france then Italy and then up to Austria and Germany and back across to calais.

Or a shorter trip not really worried.
Most of my friends habe sports bikes and are married so not allowed out Haha.

Welcome to the forum bud. You have made a wise choice of bike and also the fastest colour!!!! im sure you will get some takers for your trip, but I am planning a Portuguese trip for next year so cant come out to play this year! What part of our lovely country are you based in? there's probably a few local adventures to keep you going im sure. Enjoy your new found hobby, oh and did I mention great choice of bike hehehe.... :D

Yeah Salisbury mate.

I've had bikes all my life, mainly choppers and sports bikes.

Had a ktm 950 adventure years ago. But big and heavy as only 5.9 tall.

Went few places on that.

I want abroad as recently had my mum die and my gf split 2 weeks later with me so I need to get away really from it all.

Sorry to hear but sometimes life just kicks you in the nuts all at once. Personally I'd work out how much time & cash I had to do it with & just head off on my own, seeing who I bump into. Head over to Horizons Unlimited, have a mooch around all the spots to stay & meet & see how you go.

Hope you have a great time

Money and time isn't really an issue.

Just rather be with someone for a laugh and share the trip as bit boring alone.

Got to get 600 miles on bike before I go for its first service then I'll not have to worry about mileage
