Hi all, I've not been around too much lately coz of work etc. and am also not very organised, although did adjust chain and checked tyre pressures this morning. Just emailed eurotunnel with problem of not being able to book-in with credit card I made booking with coz it was cloned and has now been cancelled. Still awaiting reply. Anyhow, really looking forward to trip and will see you all at Chris's on friday at 7.0 am. drinks.gif


you should be fine, according to the self checkin blurb you just type in your booking reference number (on the e-mail they sent when you booked) instead of shoving your card in the slot

Pict,

You should see his bike in real life and close up, I would guess around 2 kilos of Old Lube on the thing.

I might go there early one morning, with a rag, with some gunk.............. ph34r.gif
