Calling the NW posse,

Paddy is coming over on the early ferry Tuesday 21st, would be at Lymm Services at around 1.00pm

so we have decided against the early start and to travel down Tuesday afternoon / evening and get down past the M25.

looking at a cheap travel lodge, maidstone or Ashford ?

Which means a leisurely ride on wed 23rd to the ferry, at 10.00

So ... Matlock and Peter7 what was the plan for staying somewhere the Tuesday night ?

Cheers, Ivan

Booked in at the Kings Head on the Tuesday night too. I emailed the pub about bike parking and got this response.

Chris,
What we have is a driveway at the side of the inn with space for three resident cars if required. There would be no problem with space for the bikes. The gates onto the road in front are secured at night.
Regards,
Mike & Ena


That'll do for me.

Yep, it's alright, Ivan's not very good with calendars rotflmmfao.gif We're catching the 10am ferry on Wednesday 22nd June 2011. Here's my provisional itinerary to date:
  • Tuesday 21st June, leave home, travel to Dover with the Kellys and anyone else who wants to join up. Overnight stop in Canterbury at the King's Head (booked).
  • Wednesday 22nd June, 10:00 ferry (booked) to Dunkirk/Dunkerque. Ride to Liege. Overnight stop at the B&B Au chateau du temps in Liege (TBC).
  • Thursday 23rd June, ride to Masserberg. Staying in the Hotel Heubacher Hoehe from Thursday to Sunday 26th inclusive (booked), depart Monday morning.

Still not sure if we're staying in same Liege B & B on the way back on the night of Monday the 27th, or if the Carpe posse has any other ideas?
