Chimay

I've booked my ferry ticket - anyone else going?

http://www.ihro.org.uk/circuits/chimay.htm
The dates on the website look a bit squiffy - I'm arriving Saturday
morning, returning Monday.

 

I'm going to be in Dorset that weekend[1], which is a pity, as I'd
like to have done Chimay.


[1] well, that's the plan - nothing actually booked other than the
time off work.

 

Yep, I'll be taking the 400 Four. Usual thing: out Friday, Friday
night hotel en route somewhere, back Sunday afternoon.

Does anyone want me to sort out a hotel booking for them on Friday?

 

I'm very tempted, but I'm going to wait until nearer the time to decide.

I'm extremely tempted, but I don't (yet) have any camping gear at all,
let alone any way of strapping it to the bike. <starts googling>

 

Not sure, but if I decide to go, I'll head over the Channel on Friday
and return on Monday.

 

The cheapest.

 

Ah, sorry about that. I missed it last year and I'm going with an old
friend. Are you intending to race at any other meetings this year
(other than the IOM).

 

What machinery do you have in mind?

 

Looks like it clashes with Tolpuddle (15th July).

 

****, with the amount of work I have to do, it needs more hours in the
day.

 

Heh, no.

 

I doubt if it he's ever gone on strike.

My friend has a BMW GS, I'll be on the Guzzi, we'll both be on the very
early Saturday morning Dover - Calais P&O ferry (£42 rtn Monday)

 

I suppose I'd better organise something - one last blast on the CBX.

Oi! Wuncle! You coming?

Oh ****. I should be fighting fit by then.

I'd enjoy it, wouldn't I?

Umm...

Me too, for old times sake. Logistically it's going to be a bit of a
PITA though.
