For those on the Jaeger-LeCoultre trip in April. We are all travelling at the same time there (9th April -6:50hrs) but the route back consists of three options; directly on the 12th, which we aren't dealing with here or the route back via the Black Forest arriving back in Calais on the 13th.

As per Simon's post in the main thread;

For those taking the Black Forest two day return option, it would be good to have one route for those that wish to enjoy the autobahn and have a spirited drive and those that wish to be more sedate and enjoy the scenery. We will of course plan the overnight stop in the same place but have two options for getting there.

So the poll question is, would you prefer a sedate route back on the 12th and 13th or come on the spirited route back? When we know the numbers for each we can plan the number of groups we will need.

Please be honest... driving like a maniac/chimney sweep isn't for everyone and the main aim is for everyone to be comfortable and not pushed beyond the limit they are comfortable with.

We may run a second poll I guess for the drive to Beaune -> Le Sentier. Early start and fast Versus lay-in and autoroute journey.

Let us know!

I have of course voted for the fast route for myself. Please vote and also put what you've voted for so we can begin to compile groups...

Sadly not near Baden Baden unless we complete the B500 on Saturday morning?

Not a problem at all, a nice place if we happened to be passing. As we aren't, moot point smile
