The sour taste of Vignette

Rider 2 was now in charge of the return journey, so no Stelvio Pass, and hello quick route up the Autostrada and through the Brenner tunnel.

€12 for the Autostrada and then €8 for the tunnel.

Hitting Austria we filled up with cheaper fuel (€2 in Italy!!).

Then we discovered Austrians are robbing bastards, fleecing the travelling population of Europe.

We were stopped leaving the Austrian motorway by the Stasi asking for our Vignette's, something that costs €5 a day........

Showing the receipts for all the other taxes we had paid did not cut the mustard. Hello €65 fine (each).

Just because the Austrian feckers didn't win one medal at the Olympics.....
