The Old Gits is not a commercial organisation. We don't charge anything and don't make a profit.

Trips are booked because were bikers who love touring and want as many other bikers to share the wonders of touring Europe on a motorcycle

The trip guide will do all that they can to keep the group together but should events on the road result in the group being split then agreed rendezvous points will be used.

The formation of ridding groups is entirely optional and will be up to those on the trip, but we recommend no more than 4 bikes per group. Our trip coordinator may accompany a rider or group but that will be agreed on the trip between the trip coordinator and those on the trip. This is entirely up to you.
