A completely different feeling to drive or to get driven. I felt much more wind when not driving myself. As a driver I concentrate on the road, as a copilot I recognize the exposure to the environment much more. As a result of this trip my wife will definitely wear a full face helmet when we cross the Grandes Alpes later this year. Schuberth C3 is the solution for us. Several seasons experience on the motorbike and felt very comfortable all time.


I did this recently too (when the dealer was testing my car to experience a problem I had). I also noticed the wind. The biggest thing though was the lack of footrest. There is too much space in the passenger footwell and nothing to brace yourself on. Could be quite dangerous if you submarine under the seatbelt on heavy braking I think
