This is London my friend

Has anyone cycled in malta?

Driving over there (albeit about 15 years ago... yes for those that know me, that puts me at 16... not having a driving license wasn't a barrier to renting a car) was close enough to suicidal...

Yeah, I was there the summer before last and took the racer, bit pointless as I never got up early enough to miss the mid day heat, and the afternoons where taken up with drinking and other such illustrious activities.

I was with the racer tho.
I can tell you I WILL NEVER DO IT AGAIN. Driving out there is a joke. Not surprising really, I know quite a few Maltese, and not one of them can honestly say they haven't written off a car.

The only place it was any good was over on Gozo where the roads are quiet and there are some great hills (if you like that sort of thing), but again pointless on a fixed.

Just don't do it! Save the money for the excess baggage and spend it on something more suitable, you can find something good easily in Parcheville! ;)
