157 days to go...
well that time is upon us again, well i mean the planning stage. Everyone that attended last year this is the planning threaqd and chat about it thread (that actually didnt make sense but fcuk it).
The problem is people say 'i wanna come, can i come' etc. Now no1 is stopping anyone going obviously, but if dikheads end up coming i guarantee they'll end up getting onebombed, what I'm saying is it helps if the group we go in works... much like you dont want to go away with someone you dont know, ends up being an idiot and spoils your holiday... We were lucky last year in the 'tobs' and 'gower' ended up being absolute legends and really got involved so it was great... hell who am I kidding it was the best thing I've done in my life. from meeting up at the services thursday morning to the monday night race home i cant even begin to explain the epicness of the 2010 tour...
Anyway moving on, this year... FCS is a week before, now its my intention to go to FCS but i'm not 100%. the cars will honk up some right milage so i might do FCS and stay down south and shack in B'ham prepping the car(s) ready for the jaunt over to Francais, but that can be sorted nearer the time.
My initial intentions are to travel the thursday and return monday, much like last year tbh, that way you stay in the gaggle of others that are making the journey...
I knowFailSport are travelling down too so I'd be happy to meet up with them at some point and have a banter/hug/drink, if it works out best even join up and camp together (i'm hoping we repeat the campsite location this year...)
but let it be known now, anyone that ends up joining us here is a little disclaimer, we travel as a unit down there, we look after eachother, we ride fast, we ride light and we drink ALOT.
Those that know me know I hate rules but the aforementioned just helps make things run easier, i dont really need to go into too much detail about the trip anyway as we mostly know the plan.
everything i write brings back memories and its hard to put it all in one thread. sorry the threads all over the show but its hard to text all and make arrangements on different formats and forums so i'd rather centralise it on CS and MS.
warren, i've found a place to do your decals too.... oh this will be fun.
here's a link to last year and the pictures that still make my hairs stand up... if someone can top driving off a ferry in a rainstorm behind a ford modelT then being passed by 37 bikers (eachone letting on to you), convoying with a porka GT3 & an Aston V12 vantage, ford transit and a 406 wagon with kids so excited they nearly piss themselves the first 10 minutes of France, let me know...

So yeh, register your interest, ideas, etc. Apart from that i'll see warren, Alex, fred, laura, sy, richngem, misterC, Riad, tobs and gower plus a few other select n0rfbest/CS nutters in June.
bacon?
