yes i heard the same [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ranting.gif[/img]
there aint any speed cameras that work on vehicles that are cornering (other than vascar and even thats not great on the tight twisty stuff)
so i've switched to being good on the straights and <!--coloro:#FF0000--><!--/coloro-->going flat out round the bends, its led to some interesting tyre wear but i'm starting to get used to drifting <!--colorc-->
<!--/colorc-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
anyway, back on topic....

for folks that only have a 1 week pass ....dont forget the MT11 runs until the sunday, so unless you want to pin the throttle wide open and sit on motorways you aint gonna get back for a ferry before tuesday 28th<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yes, but you are a complete loony!

We'll do the same Ferries, means getting out of bed 2 hrs early, but as Paddy says " the crack will be good".

I am heading off to Frameries, to see the WW1 graves, one of the unknown is my great-grandfather, then we'll meet up later in Liege.

Starting to come together his plan.

Cheers, Ivan

Not a problem Pete and Chris,

just dont drink any CoCoa the night before as we are leaving at 4 am to get down to Dover for the 10.00 am Ferry.

Or we can meet up on route.

Give me a shout late Chris.

Ferry booked as above

Cheers, Ivan

2 OAPs now, Chris - as from last week when Clare retired.

Ferry booked -1000hrs out and 1401hrs back - roll on next year!

Just 2 weeks after TT - let's hope for 'flaming june' weather for 2011.

Pete

p.s. We will ride down Tuesday and stay somewhere near Dover and meet you guys down there. If anyone else fancies a ride down then and probably use Premier Inn/Travelodge doon there, please let's know.

Great stuff, Chris - couple of beers on night before the ferry perhaps............

Right, ferry booked:
Wednesday 22nd June, 10:00 Dover to Dunkirk/Dunkerque
Tuesday 28th June, 14:01 Dunkirk/ Dunkerque to Dover.

I'll be overnighting in Liege at this fine establishment on the Wednesday night, although I haven't booked yet. Anyone booking in there for the night on the return journey as well (Monday 27th June), or fancy somewhere else to break up the journey?

Is it a good lodge Chris as we will need a stopping point en route?

We had also thought about trying to see some WW1 sites (we had a moving visit to D-Day sites last year).

Any views would be helpful.
