Well as things stand myself and Geordie Jeff will be riding our Guzzis to Mandello in late June this year. Ferry to Calais and take it from there. Camping will be on the menu to save money, 3 or so days to get there, 2 days to look around 4 days to come back, or something like that. Avoiding motorways where possible. We have a rough route there planned out, but on the way back in our time honoured fashion we will just make it up as we go along!!
I’ll leave the gate unlocked and the bedroom light on...!
If you stay at the camping in Isques (France), near the sea on the top of the escarpment, say high to the crazy ex French navy bloke who cooks the fish.
Jeez, the bastard can drink..!
It’s a quiet 250 or so k’s if memory serves from Calais, just a short little toddle before you get stuck in seriously...
This is the one..
If you show half an ounce of interest, they’ll invite you around the back for the evening “party...”
The rest, as they say...
is history..
