Just wondered - how many of us will meet at Folkestone/Calais to ride down the first day, and/or where will everyone else be starting in France/Belgium?
 
I'd be up for meeting in Folkestone saturday night for drinks/meal depending what time people are getting there?
 
booked on the "OMG its early" shuttle 07.20.... staying with a pal so will be buying them dinner somewhere on the sat night...
I am not an early riser;) plus I do tend to always be faffing about for ages getting ready to ride :blast so expect i will be getting there just in time,
so meet on the train, I guess?
Look out for an fjr1300....it could be me!
 
I will meet you on Sunday evening in the hotel.
Riding on Friday to Germany :ronno for the weekend and riding down to Belgium on Sunday after lunch. Long time since I rode 500 miles in one day :bounce1

yep, thats an 06.50 latest checkin, plus travel time to the shuttle, might as well not bother going to bed...except I have trained myself over long hard years to stay in bed asleep as long as possible and certainly no earlier than 9.30 ish...........:D

I do sympathise with those who have to get up early to hold a job down,as long as they dont get all macho about it... just happy its not me having to do it,
funnily enough it will not be a challenge to get out of bed to go ride me bike in the dolomites etc:thumb2
 
I'm leaving on Wednesday! :blast

Quick trip around Germany waiting for you lot to catch up. :friday
I'll see you Monday night in the hotel for a meal :beer: (well that's my current plan anyway)
 
we will be in calais awaiting your arrival, i should have said to put somewhere on the sat nav to meet but just let us know of a good place to meet and a time :aidan
 
Wishing you guys and Gals a great trip. :beerjug::beerjug:
