France 2008

I had a fantastic week in France in September with the Ninja's. Organised by GixerJ, my companions for the week included Kris, Superkev, Daz, Sax and Big Al.

(Partial) group shots.

Big Al secured his bum bag on his rear seat (badly). The result...

The bar...

The scenic shot...

I won't bore you with detail. We had a long slog down there; Le Havre to Les Cabannes circa 600 miles in a day. Then every day until the last we got up, had croissants and pain au chocolat for breakfast, rode circa 200+ miles a day (Spain if the day started overcast, France if not) back to the restuarant for pizza/past/steak and then thr bar for St Omer, the 'magic beer'. Then we rode home via Ibis Rouen and a steak supper.

The video sums it up...



You had to be there. Great fun/guys/roads/weather etc.
