Signposts??? Do they still exist? What sort of archaic practice are you suggesting??? You'll be suggesting that paper maps might still be useful next!!!

Paper maps not good on a scooter they blow about too much as you go along can't have them on your lap like in the car .

Had a nose round go outdoors other day, Found some really lightweight plates and bowls 1.50 set of 4, all different colours, think scooter camping think backpacking kit weight wise?

Oh yes I only found out the other day if you belong to CCC you an extra discount beyond their card as long as items are not in a sale, just show membership card at the till think its up to end of this year, maybe extended?
look on club website under member benefits

Good tip that

On the subject of Satnav it is illegal in France to wear in ear pods but not built in helmet speakers. Don't know the reasoning behind this but it will probably get blamed on Brexit.
France has also lowered the speed limit on certain roads but have not replaced all the speed limit signs on effected roads.

Out of town roads without a central divide 80 kmph

Isn't there some law about no satnavs with camera locations in France?

There's lot of scare mongering about that .It's if you have been using it to avoid speed cameras and speeding in between. Unlikely get stopped and sat nav checked if not been speeding.
