I am thinking of riding my motorcycle to the event, as the road from Brussels to Solms passes through some of my favourite riding territory. Of course, I want to bring at least a subset of my Leica outfit with me. My question is how to transport it safely on a motorcycle. I know some of you have experience with this. My motorcycle is a Suzuki GS500E, and can best be described as buzzy, i.e. there is a fair amount of vibration. It is this vibration that I worry about (loosened parts, misaligned rangefinders are some of the dangers in the back of my mind). I am thinking of putting the stuff in my Billingham Alice bag, wrapped in a jacket or some other piece of clothing, and carried in my Givi topcase or side case. Are there any other precautions I should take? I would appreciate hearing from other LUGger-bikers. Nathan - -- Nathan Wajsman Overijse, Belgium Photo page: http://members.tripod.com/belgiangator
