A prendre comme un appel du pied pour une rencontre impromptue avec nos amis anglais le week-end des 20 et 21 Avril. Font étape à Abbeville puis à Gerberoy avant de continuer vers le Sud. Qui serait intéressé pour se retrouver et ainsi vérifier le bon réglage de nos montures avant les TDP.

A suggestion ? On your way down to the South, visit " Les Andelys " and the "Château Gaillard". A great page of common French and English history

Thanks Fifi, that is my usual rout, but as a rule I go on the bypass and miss most of the sights, this year I will stop and look.
The cathedral at Chartres I have seen from a distance on the N154 from Dreux, it looks massive from there so am sure close up it must be huge. Again with Chateaudun, Vendôme, and Blois I tend to take the road around the city and bypass the beauty, this year I will visit. We have watched the zoo being established from a field to the spectacle it now is, and it is still being developed, it is only 90 klms from our house so not far to visit in a day but I’m sure it would be better to stay over and spend 2 days there, it looks fantastic, they have done a great job developing it. Thanks for the suggestions; I’m looking forward to many a happy hour discovering for myself the beauty of France.

Thanks for filling in the details Fifi, your generosity in offering accommodation is most appreciated.
I have now announced the ride on facebook and posted on the UK main board, with luck we will get some interest, unfortunately fucking Ferdinand isn’t coming, victim of the economic climate but I am hoping we will get enough interest so the effort put in will not be in vain. If there are any local riders who would like to share some wind on our ride south I’d ask them to let me know so I can schedule a meeting point into itinerary, be great to have local company on the ride down.
