As the Bol d'Or is back down in le Castellet (and not Magny Cours) for the first time since 1999, who is going from on here?
You know you want to - Paul Ricard circuit....in the south of France....in September....well, my ferry is booked! |

Re: Bol D'Or 2015
Way back in the 80's me and a friend did this.
I think we watched 2hours of the race! What a party. How we got home is a miracall

Re: Bol D'Or 2015
Wife and I are booked on the Amsterdam - Newcastle ferry on the 20th. I was really hoping it would coincide with our trip. Hope you enjoy / wish we could join you.

Re: Bol D'Or 2015
NTECUK - do you remember the bull-ring where drunk motor-cyclists could enter? I wonder if that much Health and Safety has hit France!
littleoldman2 - shame the ferries don't match up - it would have been nice to have a blether and a drink with you both. Darren SV650S - Hi to you too. I'm still out there doing it - got a rally a week on Friday and another three in the near future. |

Re: Bol D'Or 2015
I be honest. It was all a bit of a blur.
I remember getting to the place and meeting the other blokes freinds Then it was party. Messing around at the fair. Two very nice Irish girls. Lost my camping stove and kettle. Neve seen since anyone attempt to ride a bike so completely stoned ever again.

Re: Bol D'Or 2015
I heard it was heading back south, but I'm already going to Spain this year. Next year its a definite though. The Bol was my first foreign bike trip - on an MZ of all things - and still my best trip to date. Overtaking a load of power rangers down the Ardeche gorge rd will stay with me for ever
