For the scenic pleasure, the automotive delight or the escape from mundane life, five of our clients give us their personal account on their most favourite drives.

In that once-in-a-lifetime and couldn’t-believe-this-actually-happens scenario, I came into a windfall of 80,000€ that I was tasked to spend in a journey from Munich to Florence. At first blush that doesn’t seem too hard, I mean this neck of the European woods is afterall not known for its humble and meagre lifestyle. But then on second glance with a reading of the conditions attached, I quickly realised that expiring 80K on a road of over 800 km may become a considerable challenge.

A motorbike journey through the back street roads of Southern Europe is most definitely an experience for the bucket list. With the most beautiful scenery of wildlife, little towns and villages that dot the way and the beer tap that’s pouring at local taverns surrounded by friendly locals who love nothing more than a good yarn or two. We’re planning the epic motorbike trip through France and Italy. This is going to be all about you and the road and the big wide open.
