    That’s a bad mistake. I was headed for a job site in the middle of nowhere last week, my satnav was trying to send me through a ford but I thought against it when the water was just brushing the 2’6″ mark.

    Not sure where the air intake is on a vw caddy but I didn’t fancy my chances

    We need to get this trip sorted, so who ever can’t make it needs to make notes with dates available etc

    We have a few events on around then (bmf and pyrenees trip) but when you confirm a date let us know. Maybe we can sort out a forum camping trip!

    I might try that line at work,

    Wouldn’t surprise me if they are empty boxes, someone’s idea of cost saving

    Sounds like a possibility. Where in the world is it?

    To stop any arguements…. I need my own portion of cheesy nachos.

    I dont have a problem with mine except its miles away for everyone.

    Radar’s the best option, fairly central to all.

    Best ask Mads first when’s best because he’s always busy

    Hiring a van isnt really an option, lets just say I did the math and its not pretty. £900 + to get 3 people and 6 bikes over.

    Another option is riding (revised version)

    Untitled.jpg

    Kidderminster to Portsmouth = 160 miles x 40 mpg @ £1.35 litre = £24.55 (£49.10 return)

    Portsmouth to St Malo on the ferry = £948 / 6 = £158 each return (first quote)

    St Malo to Tarbes = 494 miles x 40 mpg @ 1.35 litre = £75.79 (£151.58 return)

    Totals £358.68 + random hotel in France somewhere and maybe portsmouth

    This little trip is getting expensive!!
