Nesh
Had to look it up. Every day's a school day.

Load the bike up a week before and ride a regular route, so you know how it handles before taking unfamiliar roads

Sounds like a 70’s porn queen.
Can we rename this section "The old women of touring bollocks"
Truly full of shit...Just get on your bike and ride the fucking thing...Most places you get to will be better than the UK, have more resources and be easier to navigate, all you need is a tongue in your head and the ability to use it...FFS, it ain`t rocket science is it?
If you cannot work out how to dress yourself, then perhaps the world is not for you?
My tip....Just get on with it and do what suits you, just avoid getting arrested wherever you may be...Life is so much easier without that shit.
And then, as if by magic…..
I see what you did there.

Or use one of the self retracting cords often issues with the ID card holder.Just back from a two week trip to Corsica and Sardinia. Prior to going I did lots of reading on here as to what would be the best way to pay for tolls. Looked at the various toll Tags and then decided I would just use a card. Last trip the card was a pain in the butt as mentioned having to remove gloves etc.
So this year I got a disc lock cord - ID card holder and fixed this to the inside of the tank bag this takes care of not dropping your card.
We used Monzo pre loaded so arrive at Toll open side of tank bag get toll tick out followed by card pay and off you go. Really worked well, at times we were through quicker than cars....
Or use an Apple Watch or a phone’s wallet function. As many bods use a phone to navigate by exclusively, it’ll be right there in from of them, in easy reach.
I’m just beginning to realise just how useful the wife on pillion is on a tour. Washes stuff and pays tolls - taking her gloves off in advance, pulling out a credit card and paying. It’s quicker than cars. I’m sure there’s other uses too.
I’m surprised Touratech don’t have them in their brochure.
