arm and a leg to fly, and defeats the point of having a bike and not riding :D I don't mind the ride, I just got so feckin wet the last time, what would have helped me last year, was getting up in the dark to go for the ferry, grabbing what I thought was my water proof trousers, to find I had my womans!! she is about a size 6-8, was like gary glitter, half way up me legs and so tight on the bollocks could not get me leg over the seat!!!

Flight-£800-1000 return

Ferry and ride £200-300no brainer, sun dance please Thumbs Up 8)

Plenty of nice flat grass for camping, toilets, showers etc
Come whatever time you want on Friday, we will set up on Thursday evening, but bar probably won't be open until about 4pm Thumbs Up

Here you go, for 4 flights, you could buy one of these Tartan... Unfortunately none found on Ebay.Fr, but plenty in the UK, how mad is that?

And have you seen the prices for runners and restored ones?? H2s are positively cheap...

Alas, herr wolf, don't think am going to make it, ferry prices have jumped, why after uk gave them 39 million?? less sailings and higher prices???? also, lots of bookings at the house coming in and we also look after another holiday let. That to is very busy, and, Brittany is becoming top attraction for the French !! All the bookings we have had are French, and all the bookings ahead are French, no uk, think they have all gone to Blackpool or the Lakes!!! All Eu holidays from the uk are down, Turkey or Egypt, not France. If I don't make Blackpool, then will be at the southern Thumbs Up Thumbs Up 8)

It's noticeable that everyone is stopping at home. The beaches were rammed solid at the Bank Holiday.
Good luck with the B&Bs..

We'll miss you mate..

I thought I should check the bike over in readiness so lubed the chain, checked tension, fine. Pumped the tyres up and kicked the exhaust! what, loose baffle !( messy job) . Noticed the side panel was loose so removed it ( perished rubbers)
Fuel leak from filler cap ( new rubber 10 yrs ago ) so put less in ! Final check 2 stroke, usually full as I'm fastidious with that but, nearly nowt. Phew!
I daren't check owt else, See you there.
