Anyone fancy it next year? Not had the money this year but somethin id be deffo up for next year, plus i graduate next year so it'd bea bit of a pressie to myself, lol. Would have to go the chunnel route tho cos i aint gettin on no boat fool, lol.
Would love to Alex but i coudnt stomach the boat trip I think ive left it a bit late aswell now tbh to get somewhere to stay.
Arr reet, my bad, well i still got the prob of the ferry next year too, lol, besides nicer whether over in France!!
I definately want to go next year as I haven't been for the past 2 now. Don't know if I could handle doing the route you're suggesting.
I cant get there any other way mate, physically cant stomach a boat. Can meet you over there instead if its easier, dont mind getting chunnel on my own and making the hike there on me todd. Bags of time to sort it yet anyway.
you can get pills for sea sickness you know....take it as you get on and you'll sleep till you get there...wont be ill and its much shorter. i reckon we'll be up for this next year.
The usually was is the ferry from Portsmouth - Caen. It is an overnight ferry. This is much better than the Dover - Calais route. If you go Dover/Calais, it's just short of 600 miles to ride from Liverpool. Portsmouth/Caen is 485 miles. Don't forget, it doesn't soun like a big difference, but when your bike is packed full of your shit, it is.
I'd look to do this again in 2010 as it was a blast when we did it last year. Depends on finances but i'm sure i'll be there.
will make a change from it being me, still haven't got over the cat n fiddle incident i really wanna go next year, missed out last year after binning the bike 4 weeks before departure and having cast on my arm, and then this year lack of funds :cry:
