Bike storage Athens

Hey Fellow bikers,

Does any of you know a place in Athens our nearby area where I can store my motorbike till spring? I wanted to drive back to NL for Christmas but already in Skopje it was snowing cold and wet. I'm only prepared for riding in the summer at least with my clothes.
Now I hope to store my bike for a while and come back in the spring to drive back while taking enough time?

Thanks in advanced.

Cheers Richard

If you have no luck in Greece, consider a bit further north in Bulgaria at Moto Camp Bulgaria | MotoSapiense

Thanks guys for you help I found a nice secured garage in Athens for €35 a month. I pay three months in advanced and the rest when I pick it up. Garage is not open for public either and you need a card to open it. Looks good and it's not as massive as some garages are.

Cheers Richard

Hey Fellows,

I found the garage and for the once who are interested here are the details:

Tech Auto-Moto Park
Filolaou 88-90
116 33 Athene GRC

N 37˙57.849
E023˙44.882

Phone (0030) 2107019181
Mobil (0030) 6932915500

Price €35 month

Good luck.

By the way, there is 24hr video surveillance and you get a personal keycard to open the garage. It is a private garage so no unwanted guests inside !!!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
