I guess it's over to Matt now to steer the discussion on attending and routes an' ting.

RTT Manager Matt101, it's all yours, take it us away !

[Matt101]

Okeedokee. Arrive at the Hotel Royal 14th July. Stay for 5 nights. Depart Friday 19th. I will work out some routes etc. I will hopefully upload these for satnag users. I know it's not exactly the second week but with others contacting me it seems these are the preferred dates. If you contact your bunk buddies and let us know what requirements are for rooms so I can get a list together for Limbo. If you fancy sorting your own accommodation then let us know if you are attending. Anything I've missed feel free to let me know and I'll try to get it sorted. RTT2013 is GO!

I would suggest having a separate topic for listing attendees, dates and location.

Is there a cut off date for booking a room ?
Deposit to pay ?
Any camping facilities nearby ?
Things to do in the area ?
Will it rain a lot ?
Why ?

I'd love to say I'll make it but family matters are my priority next year. If I go, it'll be a lastminute.com jobby.

[Matt101]

Deposits I will ask Limbo to check for us. There is camping nearby apparently. Loads of stuff in the area.

[Limbo]

There are primarily a list of serious buyers.
Anyone can register as planned or confirmed.

A deadline for the reservation there will certainly be later.

Since reserve as many rooms it is one of the mandatory reservation Caution be common.
Which date and what amount you will see later.
The procedure for paying the Caution will pretend Matt101.

If beds are free, you can book last minute ... without warranty.

There are dam-where to stay. Where there are dams, there is rain.
The rain is not scheduled in the calendar. How much rain there is leg rests you with your rain dance.

Where there are camping I had already written.

Studders

Can you put a sign up sheet for us. I know it's a bit early but it'll give folk chance to decide. We will obviously need to check for a cut off date for the group booking.

Thanks again Limbo

Cheers

eeeerm, might be better if you start a new topic for that Matt, then you can use the first post to display the list and also update it. If I do it then I'd need to do the updating.

[Matt101]

Just looked at ferries. Dover to Dunkerque. Depart 13th July 10am and return 21st July 4pm for a whopping 34 pounds sterling return!!!

Mines booked!

Which company is that with Matt?

[Matt101]

Which company is that with Matt?

DFDS. Always had good value from them

[hallrob1]

Don't forget you can use your Tesco Clubcard vouchers on the Tunnel at 3 time the face value - my last 3 trips under the water have cost me £15 in vouchers plus £5 or £6 cash on top.

[MarkyMark]

Current thinking:-

Travel Fri 12 July - - only 4 hours from Calais.

Staying Fri > Wed 17th - That will be 4 days riding in the area.

Travel back Wed 17th

I will book hotel and Tunnel

Hope to bump into as many folks as possible.

Looks interesting Dandy, might have to make a visit there. A camping weekend may be on the cards.

[Matt101]

Righto attendees. Can you let me know your tank ranges as I'm dabbling with routes but need to factor in fuel stops etc. I'm ok for @240 miles at sub warp speeds. Wot bout yours?

[chrisr]

About 200 for me, will confirm after Brittany trip next week.

You lucky bugger, smell that Castrol 'R' 

[Matlock]

Hi Matt, 900s should get 200 miles from a tank cross country. I'll let the 850 fellas comment on their own machines, but I know MK1s are a fair bit less than 200.

[Rallyist]

My Mk1 never gets more than 150 to reserve, but need   and fluid intake/outlet  before then, should be on the niner though, all being well.

Edited by Rallyist, 19 April 2013 - 04:37 pm.

[AliG]

The weather being as it's been, I haven't had a chance to check the 850 properly, but I got to 160 miles commuting before having to top up. Will check and get back to you.
