Free day trip to France 23rd June.

Alan Malarkey, Jon Avery, and myself are off to France for a daytrip on a freebie thanks to SeaFrance.

Sean was coming but now wants to see the Smithfield Nocturne instead, and Brighton and back was mentioned a while ago.

0930 (UK Time) ferry out. Return ferry 21:00 (French time so still back in blighty at 21:30).

Planned route is from Calais head through quieter lanes to Boulogne / Wimereux area (30 miles-ish) for a lunch stop. Then we would head back via the coast road (25-30 miles - hopefully wind behind) to Calais in time for Alan's 18:30 ferry. Jon, myself, and whoever then stuff our faces in Calais before the 21:00 crossing.

Would be a shame to let this go to waste. Don't worry about speed, this is planned as a nice day out riding in France, not training or racing.

See below for Sean's message, you may need to let SeaFrance know your name to transfer ticket.

[quote="seanieh.ThePengeAvenger©"]Any takers? As I'm off to Smithfield's for beer, bikes and maybe some....

This voucher is up for grabs. i might need a name, so any takers?

How were you planning on getting back Sean?

Was looking forward to Brighton & Back

Forgot to say you will need to be able to get yourself to and from Dover. Alan is on a different return ferry, and My car will be full with Jon, myself and bikes. Sorry.

[mlocke]

Sorry guys, would love to trundle round france for the day but the girlfriend said that I could only go to france once with my bike.

Have a good time

Got my entry returned from the 100 - too slow

Any chance I can come to France with you guys?

[Andrew G]

Fine with me Paul, you need to speak to Sean to transfer the ticket. It will be steady though as Alan will have just got back from 1000 km off roading in Spain.
