Le Mans.. August 1st/2nd

Post by Red5 »

OK Guy n girls, wafes n strays...

Looks like some of us are up for Le Mans with nolimitstrackdays.com .
£379. This is for the rack time only.
Transport etc has to be arranged our selves.

Some of us are looking at ferry options etc.
So far looking like Newhaven to Dieppe with fun bus, vans, and or a trailer if necessary. and a car.

I estimate that the whole trip will probably come in at about £800 each, that's 2 days at Le mans, accomodation and beer tokens. Always a few unexpected incidentals but that's about the jist of it.

Yep, I'm cutting down on my track days this year and will never do 2 euros in a year... =)) =))

Hey Nick

Could well be interested in this but as you know have major family illnesses and bereavements I’m dealing with at the moment so not even going to be thinking about it for a few months.

Wendy and I are booked. Ferry crossing from Newhaven to Dieppe is very cheap If booked now just over £200 for both of us and the van return. Considering it's kids holiday I think that's a great price.👍👍

Spaces in the fun bus are now taken, that's 5 bikes.
Basically any more people, another van/trailer is required.

I would like to do this but got the feeling by the time I have cleared all the current family issues and confirmed I have a bike to ride might well be too late. Let’s see
