Anyone else going this weekend for the annual live in a field that looks like the Somme and witness behaviour so outragious even the Plod stay in town ???? Believe me it makes the cars look like an up market cultural event.

For interest we're on 8 oclock ferry thursday dover calais (the longer the ride the more fun the journey )

I can't make it this year but what love about it is that the French accept that a shed load of bikers will take too long to pay up at the péage, so the autoroutes are free all weekend for bikes!

One that the french got right, for a change.
Have a great time mel - i'm going to wsb monza instead....
