Traveling to Spain for a 7 day motorcycle trip. Actually 12 days but 7 day rental.

BMW GS 1200 with full bags rented: check

Garmin Europe installed on Zumo: check (Thanks Ken)

Routes planned and saved on said Zumo: check

Research the Andalucian sites: check

The question I have is, should I send the ATGATT to the rental place in Seville. They have lockers to hold and store all items not needed for travel and the like. Good accommodating folks (through email) so far.

When you travel do you send the gear via UPS and such or do you carry on. I know not to check said items..... so what say you, international adventure freaks?!?

I'd wear it, and carry my lid.

If you have time to send it, confirm its arrival and replace if lost prior to departure, then it's nice and convenient to send. But can you get them to help over there with the return parcel shipment?

PS I'm envious.
PPS Brand new, lower 110 km/h speed limit in effect in Spain, effective March 7.

What Fahren said.

Otherwise, make sure you have enough $$$ for new gear.

Hope your trip is all you want it to be.

I don't know anything about going anywhere!
But if you happen to run in to Inigo Montoya, tell him I said hi. He's one of my heroes.
If you have too many fingers, keep your hands in your pockets.
Sounds like a very nice trip!
Rotzaruck!

Definitely carry on. Taking the armor out of your gear helps get everything crammed in. Good luck!

Carry on? Helmet in a helmet bag and I wear the rest on the plane.

Wear all your gear on the plane and pretend your The Stig.

Try getting through security wearing riding gear? No thanks.


I'd ship it, no question.

Check out a bull fight while you are there. The catherdral has some cool history inside. There is a shuttle from Moron AB too.

Wear a Aerostic through TSA with helmet and commo gear for your gps mp3 etc might have the TSA weinies sending you off to AREA 51. Or have flash backs of the Power Rangers and beg for autographs
