Don't let Walshy near it. Sounds perfect though.

It'll end in tears...

...or at least gravel rash.

There's a good chance I might stay at the hotel, bit cheap and cheerful but it'll break up the journey home.

We were planning on breaking up the drive and staying in Reims on Sat night, and then the ferry is booked from Amsterdam on Sunday....

Also i noticed an interesting line in Paul's instructions "6. No Timing & no handheld cameras/loose object. Suction mounts are also banned."

Does this mean an alternative way of fixing my GoPro is required then as I think i only have a suction mount....

OK, have confirmed time off work, re-booked with Paul Golding and have ferry crossings booked.

I've booked the 20/8 stay in Nancy Ouest Novotel.

I'm not sure what I'm doing on the Friday night yet - not going into Amsterdam! I think I'll book a room in Zandvoort for a relaxing evening, unless anybody has any non-Amsterdam related plans?

Cheers,
Robin

I am still not sure about the amsterdam night, could knock me off for the whole if I get carried away( which I normally do!! )

So may also be up for a relaxing night .

Also will go with the flow on the way back, would love to do the alps with Scotty and co, but have so much on, I need to get back.

Stop being a woofter and get the NH Tropen booked.

It'll be a quiet night I'm sure. Not like it's Andys stag do or anything...
You can always duck out early and thus avoid Benny's Banana Bonanza...

Leave him alone, he is growing old gracefully as I did.

I'm sure the boys know that I don't bow to peer pressure

Last time I stayed in the hotel at Zandvoort we ended up drinking a bottle of this:

well done Robin!

Was just thinking that actually i might stay and drink with Robin, but now knowing what he might be drinking, i think i might take my chances in the dam!

Will be SO happy to get on that ferry on thursday! Rangie, racepod and race car still in Bishop Stortford!

Tyres starting to arrive in Edinburgh - just thought about taking the mini moto for the paddock - hasnt been used in years, but should make for some amusement. Walshy is banned from it though - if you have seen his Brands video

52 can refridgerated beer cooler for the Rangie dusted off also.

Robin - if you want anything carried - welcome to throw it in the Rangie

Andy,

How are you going to get it back? Fly down to Stansted then drive straight to Newcastle or are you bringing it up to Edinburgh first?

Cheers,
Robin

I bl**dy hope not - or I'm walking to Newcastle!!

I can give you a lift to Newcastle provided you're not taking the larger of your make up bags
