My girlfriend and I decide to go for a ridiculous scooter adventure. And I think we accomplished that. We jumped on our 49cc Yamaha C3 Scooter, completely overloaded it, and then rode it over the Mountains in BC, from Vancouver, BC, Canada, to Toronto, Ontario.
4500kms, in 11days. We even did 650kms one day! Not bad on a scooter that wouldn't go faster than 55kms/hr downhill. Don't get me started on uphills!
For more than 25 years we are offering comprehensive international insurance coverage for motorcars, campers and motorcycles. Our clients are Europeans travelling abroad as well as foreign travellers coming to Europe. We can provide also a wide range of additional coverage connected to a journey, such as insurance of your travelling expenses and luggage or travel health insurance.

"A long moped journey. Toronto to Alaska to Toronto on a Mobylette in 1978."
Jeff´s journey from Connecticut, USA to Argentina..."After riding just 50m of the beach into La Mosquitia, Honduras, I realized this was not the time or place to learn how to ride in sand!"
By their own admission Two Feathers and Vicky are white trash and they manage the camp site I stayed at on Swan Lake. “Are you Welsh†“Er, no? I’m from London!†“Is that in Australia?†“No, England!†“Oh yeah, I can hear your Irish accent now!†After giving me a pitch at half price for having a bike I was invited back down to their trailer for Jagermeister and beers, and I left them the next day clutching a frozen elk stake for me to BBQ. Although I only understood about one word in three they were wonderful hosts.

"My name’s Ben and I really like motorcycles. So much so, that I want to see the world on the back of one. I’ve cooked up this scheme where I’m going to spend 26 days, riding from my home in San Diego all the way to Montreal to see a Formula 1 race. I’ve also shanghaied my friend and fellow F1 aficionado, Adam into this little adventure and on the 11th of May, we’ll be setting off to the Great White North. Our route will take us through Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, the Dakotas, Minnesota, Ontario and Quebec."
