Chimay

apparently there's no bar in the hotel?

 

Neither is exactly what you'd call practical.

I strapped a tailpack and tent to the back of the RGV for the BOSM this
year, so that does have some pedigree as a tourer. Fucking uncomfortable
though.

Haven't decided yet. It'll either be Thursday evening or Friday morning.

So many choices! Aaargh!

Previous experience tells me that if there isn't a bar in the hotel
we're stopping in then there's one next door.

 

Its attached to the Ibis next door. the walk from the car park
separates the hotel. enter left for our hotel, enter right for the
Ibis.

we stayed in the Ibis last year so know it has a bar. its also 20 euro
cheaper than the Ibis. for the amount of folks that's staying there
that's a significant donation towards the bar bill.

I'm going. I'm booking rooms in Maubeuge on Friday night for Zymurgy and
myself. Anyone else?

Point of order. Them ain't bungees, them's rokstraps.

 

He's right you know.

I can still remember the looks on everyone's faces when I returned to
the campsite with a case of beer on the 10R. Sadly it all went
downhill from there...

 

You think that's bad, I just brought my mate's Duc 748 SPS to my gaff
from 10 miles away, **** me that bike is an arse killer.

At least this year it can start on the Friday evening and you'll be
able to pace yourself over the weekend...

Naaaah, can't see that happening.

 

not bad for a sportsbike.

On the recent french run I managed two crates of beer on the pillion
seat of the tiger, and could probably have got two more on the rack,
if necessary.

 

For very small values of crate.

Wasn't it more of a jew-pile?

 

true. But it wasn't a bad hawl considering it was completely impromtu.

 

heh.

 

Hawl? Where on earth did that come from?

oh god, I'm turning Welsh.

 

I was thinking of getting to Chimay a day early. I'd grab the best
camping spot but how do I hold on to enough ground? especially as I know
you will all arrive and camp at the other end of the field.

 

Your sig's really starting to look out of place.
