**Bicycle Phil** · #1 13 Jun 2005

Can anyone recommend a moto rental agency in Provence, ideally near Salon de Provence. I will be arriving Salon de Provence July 7th and need to rent a moto for three days(Dual sport or a GS).
thanks,
Phillip

i don t know anyone rental company in particular.
but i did a google search, there are some responses (this is europe so a bit expensive, 50 euros per day is the minimum for a small bike or scooter)
or just go to some dealers, tell them you re interested to buy and get some free test rides, for how long ???

I found a bike to rent in Avignon. The logistics and the timing of my short trip made a bit more difficult to secure the bike(right place/right time). Originally my trip did not include moto until I found out about the Stella Alpina/ADV Euro rally and its close proximity to Provence.
I rented the bike for three days only.

thanks for your responses

maybe you can give us more details : name of the company, conditions, prices (to also please other bikers)

also for Stella Alpina/ADV Euro rally :

i may go maybe not this year.
do you have exact dates for this year ?

"for one weekend every July all this changes as motorcyclists from oil over Europe converge for what is Europe’s, if not the worlds, highest rally."

also in the south of france, based in Sisteron, i ve learnt recently that Alain Arnaud organises some nice bike tours offroad / in the trails in the southern alps and in provence.
(he has for example organised some touratech and bmw clubs meetings).
