OK, so far we've got nearly 40 people. The hotel can handle quite a few
more, if anyone's interested.

For those who missed the original posting - the Ardennes, 29 & 30 April,
returning Sunday 1 May, cost probably around ukp130 based on one person
sharing a room, inclusive of ferry and four or five course dinner each
night. Slightly less for 2 people on a bike - slightly more if you want
a single room.

Full details as soon as I've negotiated the usual.

Very tempted. I've been meaning to come on one of these for years.

I check with SWTIUTA to see if she wants to come.

Thread hijack: I fancy going, anyone willing (and got a suitable bike)
to take me pillion? Although I'm in Bristol, we could sort the
geography out. Petrol money and beer to be contributed to.

....and yes I know I could take the car and be a support vehicle, and
no,I'm not going to go out and pass a bike test...

Cheers

Hmm...perhaps Richard A might be willing? As the 600 has been lowered
I doubt it would be a good idea to take a pillion on mine due to the
lack of ground clearance.

And if you went I would have a partner for the room..but we won't take
bottles of red wine up with us because they are *bad*. I don't think
our Aussie friend has ever got over his experience... <G>

Why not? It's not as though you don't know enough good biking people
to get you through it ;o)

Hello darling, you popping along too? Oh, give Paul a nudge about this
too. Tomorrow will do because it will take him until the sailing date
to get geared and togged up and everything just to ride down to the
ferry..

You know, that sort of trip sounds much more interesting - ie the trip to
TOG tours for you.

How far would be and would there actually be any interesting roads?

I suspect you're going to take motorway/autoroute to get in the bar early :)

Happy New Year my love.

I really cant wait now!! WRT Paul I spoke(1) to him yesterday at about
8.00 pm whilst he was eating his dinner at his mums(2) and he was due to
call me back. (Sounds like a good idea Where are they going? How Many?
What time was the original posting? Are there still places? Have they
been before? Are there any pictures? How much?)

Needless to say no call so tonight I rang him again and he STILL does
not know if he is coming! I am to call him tonight.

If he starts getting ready now he should make BOSM and France trip 2006

BTW which ferry?

Can't do that, I'm afraid - to get the discount, we all need to be on
the same ferry. I can sort the hotel out, leaving you to arrange your
own ferries, if you like.
Email me with irl name of the other room occupant.

OK lets work with the return for now. If I don't use the other ticket
doesn't matter.
