first long trip

[yorkie_chris]

What race? I'm off to le mans (in a van with me mates though)

Other than that, dizzyblondes done some riding in france so knows about it.

Just make sure your bike is healthy, take some chain lube and use it, if you give it a burst every other fuel stop or something.

Fuel, if you plan your route around a fuel stop every 100 miles then you're safe pretty much however you're riding.

not actually sure. mate emailed saying check my company name on this bike - its racing in france in june fancy going. all i know is leave friday afternoon, race saturday afternoon and sunday morning then leg it back to catch ferry at 8. i watched le mans (cars) 2 yrs ago. dam long weekend that was.

bike should be fine - chain lube is something i never thought about cheers. 100 mile
blast between fuel seems like the right thing to do. one of the cars travelling with will have sat nav so will get on their case.

actually just been informed what i will be watching:
600 superstock, 600 supersport, EDI asia formula 400 (mates bike is in that), triumph speed triple, formula 1/2 side cars and thunderbike UK championship.

well far more than i was expecting - excellent. now all i have to do is make it there.
