Found out today that I will be going to Edinburgh in April 2024.
Have been watching YouTube videos and some trip diaries from forum members which has been super helpful but still have so many questions and hoping someone can offer some advice, tips etc….
Girlfriend and I would love to rent a motorcycle and travel around Scotland however I am not sure if time will allow a NC500 adventure or not. I think we will be there for a week however some of that stay will require us to stay around Edinburgh for work acitivities.
My current question is regarding planning and packing.
I have looked at some places in Edinburg to rent a bike and we think we would pack our helmets and gear. I read somewhere that helmets must be ECE 22 rated - I don’t see that sticker on our helmets? ( Sedici Strada and a HJC i10) Do we need to rent helmets or can we use ours? Hope we can use ours since both outfitted w Cardos.
I am looking at purchasing the Moskomoto Mule Bag to haul our gear and purchase a insta360 to capture the memories. Both expensive - overkill? .
Any recommendations, tips or observations? Best way to pack, what to pack vs what to rent, etc…. or any insight is greatly appreciated?
