Greece is great, and Crete especially, but what do you think of the Cretan drivers (not bike riders)? :p

Yeah driving in Crete is pretty crazy, but the bikers are all crazy IMO. I saw a couple of them wearing helmets, but most had no protection whatsoever, merely a pair of shorts and slippers :eek: Even guys flying by on Busa's :confused:

I can imagine it gets too hot to wear anything in the summer, but damn, with the roads there (most of them in horrible condition) it's just madness.

Other than that, Crete is awesome :cheer:

Hey guys, I just spent my vacation in Agia Galini in Crete, and it was awesome! I love Greece :)
I was there two years ago... It was fantastic!

Hi George, welcome to the forum, nice to have you here.

I have been to Athens before and you must be a very brave man to ride a motorbike around that city.

Welcome to everybody!!! I see many members from Greece here but most of you don't seem to join the site very often. At least this site is better than the greek one where everybody tells off each other.I was born in Trikala and live in Athens since 2005. As for the greek roads they are horrible. Ride a lot, post often and every help you want i'll be here for you. Ride safe out there.

:welcome: again.... :greece:

My friend, IMO of course, if you have your own guy in a service center, just don't let any other to put a hand on your bike. 5 or 10km over is nothing at all. :thumbup:

Another Greek here :thumbup: ...I'm from Chicago.

Most of my family is from the island of Kos. Last time I went to Greece was when I was 18 in 2001. I was there for 6 weeks and it was absolutely amazing! My wife and I hope to go this summer. She has never left the country so man what an awesome vacation this is going to be for her.

Welcome mate. I've been to Kos about 10 times. Nice island. It's only an hour ferry trip from Rhodes where I live so we often go for a weekend getaway. If your in Kos during the summer, pop over here to Rhodes and PM me and we'll go for a beer. :thumbup:
