touring idea

Post by Doctor T »

Just putting the feelers out. Would there be any interest in recommending camping sites and hotels section? where you have stayed and have bike safe parking. Were you welcomed as a biker or a single person? Single person means a 1 person booking.
Links to the campsites and hotels are to be included by the poster.
This may help when touring abroad or outside your region. We all know that sometimes booking a trip can be a bit of a hit or miss with the accommodation. A bad site or hotel can ruin a holiday, ive been there myself.
So do you think a section on this subject could help you on your next trip?

Personally I think that is a very good idea.
Perhaps try to break it down into Countries / Areas to keep things simple to find

Before anyone starts running away with this idea just bear in mind how many sections this would create :)

Although I can create a recommendations section and within that have seperate sections for Camping, B&B's Hotels etc etc this would take up far less space on the main forum but all the relevant sections within that :thumb:

Ah yes, me being non-IT savvy never gave that a thought.
Perhaps you could just create a whole new website dedicated to just such an idea :thumb: :lol:
