Lizfjr Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Can anyone tell me if there are any rules about the number of bikes that can be allowed on a rideout. Are there any special permissions required?Liz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunday Driver Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 If your rideout involves a pre-determined route and requires riders to pass through specific fixed points on that route, then it is classed as a 'concentration' and you can have up to 400 motorbikes participating. You must make a declaration to your préfecture and obtain prior authorisation and if your route passes through other departments, then you must simultaneously notify the other préfectures concerned. If your route passes through more than twenty departments, then you must also obtain authorisation from the Ministry of the Interior.On the other hand, if it's just a small group of mates off for a day out, then no special permissions are required.....[;-)] .

Dog Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 In France I seem to remember that if you take in route rurals or go green laning as it is called in UK the number of bikes in a group has quite a small limit - is this law or just self regulation?

Lizfjr Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 I won't be taking any GTRs or FJRs green laning thank you very much ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Why not - it's good fun getting dirty, sweaty and tired plus no dead cow clothing!I had one of the first FJ1200s it was certainly interesting off road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizfjr Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 There's better ways to get sweaty and dirty without risking all that plastic.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I cannot disagree but I could lend you a classic CZ that has no plastic other than an easily cleaned seat cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
