Anyone intrested in a france trip in may for novices to the Pays de la loire area of franc not far from le mans,plenty of nice quiet roads,lovely bed and breakfast, approx 38 euros based on 3 sharing and a couple of double rooms ,able to take up to 13 people,
Okay this is for the novice to france ,so if you think youll hold us up you wont if you want to stop and have a look around ,fine this is for you,would like to leave from portsmouth to le harve about £60 return leave on thursday and come back monday,the idea is to get you used to riding abroad and to enjoy its about two and a half hours from le harve and then have some days riding out,whatever you want ,NO pressure ,this is for you if you havnt been before and worried about keeping up well you wont have too
Being completely selfish, either travel out on Thursday 2nd or 23rd May suits me best - will only have to wangle two days off school then as both following Mondays bank holidays. But then 10th is my birthday, so that could be good. Will work it out what ever.
have posted details on events, dates and details
look this is me trying to sort out an event as there doesnt seem to be much on events down south ,and if your thinking ,,id like to go but im not confident enough then this is for you ,no one will be left behind and its a learning trip for all.
sandi ,thanks ,im new to this stuff bear with me leaving on the 2300 ferry from portsmouth arriving 0800 le harve.then onto broulon near to lemans ,day trips out ,and leaving accomadation on4th june and back to ferry,all costs and details on events calender any questions please ask
Err
A "date" would be a good start to help find it on the calendar Stutts
I've read and re-read the whole thread but can't find a DATE as to when this is happening
Ferry times, yes, but date/dates no
Can't find it on calender so I assume it's been submitted but not yet posted. We know we are returning on 4th June This needs to be sorted soon so we can see how many are going and everyone can get booked on the same ferry. bike spaces are always limited on the ferries. good to see some interest but would like to see more interest from the less experienced amongst us' Remember this is a BM event so we will all look after each other so don't be afraid to take the plunge and get your bike abroad. Iwent for the first time last year and can't wait to go again. Proper roads with smooth tarmac and drivers who see you coming
This event was only submitted today, I can't add 'em til they've been submitted, I'm good but not THAT good lol
Ta Stutts
This event is now on the calendar
