<P>What's all this 'bar' stuff? That how many bars you can hit before you

mountain passes. Loads of fun, even with a fully laden Kia Rio I was
repatriating, also thanks to the climate control on board. If you are
returning during the weekend I strongly advise you to avoid the Toll roads and
Motorways, they may be very crowded and slow, are expensive, very, very boring
and the services and meals are lousy.<BR>Tap in "avoid motor ways and/or toll
roads" on your (up to date!!!!) GPS or smart phone and enjoy the really
excellent secondary and smaller roads. It will take a bit longer but is so
more pleasant with nice places to see, many excellent small restaurants,
hotels on the way, plenty of arm muscle exercise and the petrol is way
cheaper. Just be aware that petrol is mainly sold along the road near the
larger towns and at the hyper markets e.g. Intermarché, very well indicated
beforehand often near industrial estates. Do carry a 10 litre jerrycan with
petrol, just in case.<BR>Tyre pressure also depends on temperature, I had over
40ºC with tarmac melting. I would settle for around 2bar for this size of tyre
in general.<BR><BR>Kees Oudesluijs<BR><BR><BR><BR>Op 6-8-2017 om 12:11 schreef
