Riding from the UK to Brno Moto GP
Discussion
Currently forming plans with Mrs Airsafari for my 50th birthday trip next summer.
We were going to hire a camper van and follow the Tour de France for the final 2 weeks of the tour.
But…
The announcement that MotoGP will return to Brno next year has thrown up a very strong alternative.
Has anyone done this trip before? Would it be possible and not a complete ball ache based on below?
Ideally I’d like to do it within 2 weeks, but could take extra time off work to make the trip more relaxing.
Using motorways the absolute bare minimum, at least for one leg of the journey.
Catch the ferry from Newcastle to Amsterdam on the Friday the week before the GP.
Use the next 6 days to ride to Brno circuit.
Arrive at Brno on Friday of the race weekend.
Set off home the Monday after the race weekend and arrive home Saturday/Sunday.
Mrs Safari isn’t a fast rider so it won’t be a balls out blast.
Would likely stay in hotels / airbnbs / home stays for each leg of the journey.
I have a work colleague who lives not too far from Brno so accommodation for race weekend would be sorted.
