I would prefer you let me know before we leave UK.
It would be great to have some company of our French brothers.

Citation :

We go south on the 1st octobre (Gerberoy) return to UK on the 8th

Jane & I are looking forward to meeting up with you at Fifi's house and going on the Volcano ride

Coyote, Nathalie, Didier63, Florence and me are waiting for us near Clermont Ferrand, the wine reserve is made!!!! Another Philippe join us the second day after the museum visit.

FiFi

Fifi & Florence... many thanks for letting the Belonga UK team stay at your Maison for a few nights, we all had a wonderful time and your hospitality was very much appreciated. The ride out to the Volcano Park was very scenic (and Mick gave us all a special view of his Valkyrie when he slid it down a ditch). The Moto Museum we visited was one of the best seen and it was good to meet Coyote, Nathalie and the other FR VRCC member (I forget his name sorry).

The pleasure was for us to have you all at home, you return when you want. Hope Mi
The new member is one "Philippe" also. I hope that Mike recovered well from his feelings and that we shall not have to see any more the bottom of its motorcycle.

If you have some pictures of the group you can put some one here or in facebook, thanks.

Thanks for posting the Photo,s Fifi, it was a great rideout many thanks Geoff & Jane

Thank you very much for photos

Thanks again Fifi, and what Geoff says, and a big thank you from me and meJulie for your hospitality, great week with friends, I am still a bit soar on the shoulder but a long as everybody enjoyed the view of the bike it was worth it, meJulie said please would I not do it again, even more reason now for her to get the trike.
