Your experience above matches point 2 below.

3. If you are bringing in several of your own bikes you will likely encounter problems and your success may be dependent on the attitude of the 'head honcho'.

Point 3 is the tough area. Peter at Bikershome had problems a few weeks ago entering with three Spanish bikes registered in his name on the back of a 4x4 also registered in his name. Despite having Zineb with him to sweet talk the officials they refused entry. He retreated and waited several hours until the officials changed and tried again, same result.
So he bought a ticket back to Spain and hooked up with some friends who were entering a couple of days later and who had more people than vehicles. This time success.
