Northern France

Arrived back from a tour round the northern French coast Sunday night. Never been to this area before but well worth a repeat trip just to spend more time doing the tourist bit at Normandy, so much history!
Fist night stopped in Arromanches, 2nd Quintin 3rd Crozon 4th Quiberon last Dinard.
Lots of good roads riding round the coast




Nice hotels too




and heres the crew, not all members but maybe some you know

Terry "tank" Sowerby



Big Terry Savery




Dave Whittle-Williams



Carl "wing commander" Bancroft



Nibbs "sheep botherer" Adams




As you can see the @ was well represented with a Superten TDM850 and a VFR800.
I'll add some more pics when i get em.

Good question Merv but on the days i was'nt leading i was lost
Just enjoying the ride.
It's a great area as you say and worth another look sometime. But came out really expensive due to exchange rates. We looked around for cheap lunchstops everyday, found this one in a little town market somewhere...




Nice

Re: Northern France

find a truckers restaurant with loadsa trucks outside, they are the places to eat 11/12 euros for a good feast generally,
