Very respectable turn out, a crash at snetterton really did end my chance of coming! Will do the next though.

Booked.

Are you meeting at J8 or are you heading straight for the port?

[Fats25]

Have a good time guys and girls, and stay safe.

I want you all to practice going round a roundabout at least 3 times if following Andy!

Yep I'll be there at J8 if all goes to plan (I get up in time)! Will be on the blue SV. See you then!

Having never ridden abroad before, I'll be taking it easy. Especially around the wrong way round, roundabouts.

The roundabouts are the easy bit.. it's the junctions that will be having you thinking a bit

Just to clarify this... do we follow Andy around the roundabout 3 times or do we just go round 3 times on our own??

[spareparts]

Be careful around French roundabouts. They hide diesel in the light coloured surface very well, and they are cambered away from the middle!

[Wildfire]

Cheers Ade.

[smack]

I guess I am joining in as well as my alarm clock woke me up.

[Andy XRV]

All aboard!!

[mitzy]

Safe trip lads

[Andy XRV]

Very sobering

[Tribal Chestnut]

I enjoyed that. Thanks for organising it Andy.

[2OOM]

I agree, thanks Andy was a Brilliant day ... Nice to meet all you all ..

[smack]

Good day out and cheers to Andy for his planning and inviting us along.

And proof us Southerners CAN organise a piss up in a brewery - well in this case a Sunday ride which includes 2 boat trips, 3 countries, 2 border inspection crossings, and only 1 rider got lost!


But a big Fck You to the Polish Lorry diver who decided to Elephant race out of Dover up the hill for 5 miles at 50mph so he could get ahead of 3 lorries, so about 100m, causing a massive slow tailback. Nice one, prick.

What bike were you on?

The northern contingent couldn't afford the ferry, so there's sod all chance of then visiting anywhere but Scotland or Wales.

[Andy XRV]

Cheers everyone - once gain it was good to put faces to names and catch up with a few BB regulars.

Wildfire - your new bike is stunning mate and I hope you didn't get too beaten up on some of the rougher back roads

[Wildfire]

Thanks Andy. Was a great day out, thanks for organising it. I have to say I was feeling it a bit towards the end of the day, following smack up the M20.
