French Trip (Laon)

[Graham-P]

Just got back from France with Simon (Tuxman) had a good time with good company and good weather....haven't put the hood up for days.

Waiting for the ferry at Dover on Friday.


Trip to Reims on the Saturday to visit the old greand prix circuit pits.




On the Sunday everyone met in the town of Laon for display and drive around the old city.



One of our favourite cars waiting to go round.




This is only a little of what we did but all in all a good long weekend.

That red and green Cafe in the square, if I am not mistaken?
.... brings back memories when several of us on harleys visited and camped in the caf for several days about 6 years ago on our way to St Tropez! If my memory serves me there were two very nice ladies (one was the owner I think) working there...had a great time...ooops...sssshhh! don't tell the Missus!

Are they still there?

glad your enjoying your car and drinking loads of oil...hahhaha....bet you get more looks than a noble and not because of the oil smoke...............

I think you passed us on the M20 on Monday (Black Defender 110 towing a blue 4x4 racer and quad)on our way back from Soissons.

The trip back was made all the more interesting by the older cars.

Best sight on the ferry out was a GTV6 towing a glider, that strikes me as a brave man!

Dom, glad we bought back some memories for you!!!!

Ramthorne, I remember passing you, plus another 4x4 racer (in France I recall)
