Best time to go to the town on Friday

[Philip-8km5h]

Looking for a bit of advice here, please :-D

I'm doing my second Le Mans this year with the wife, and also my best mate is in tow for his first visit to the 24H. Last time, we didn't make it into the town. We spent the day just hanging around the circuit area and campsite, so naturally this year I'd like to hear to the town to maybe see the driver's parade, or maybe even a car show elsewhere if something else is on?

Recommendations please! Are there any particular times that the town are super busy and to be avoided?

Cheers,
Phil.

Some great suggestions here, thanks everyone for posting!

We’re going to have bikes this time so planning on avoiding the public transport.

I think early pit walk, then trip to town followed by car show sounds like a great combo!

Apologies for nicking a bit of this one but we're taking bikes this year for the first time. Is the trip doable on a bike (I know that technically it is but is it practical?).

I think the big question is, how much are you going to drink...?

Getting in is easy. Getting back when you're hammered, not so much.

Yep, this is indeed the question. I'm quite a seasoned pissed cyclist, so I think I'll be alright. The missus however...!
