i do travel, just not on planes. or motorways with the bike. the sceerery and colors are v,much like here this time of year.
Plus 1 for that, motorways are most unpleasant on a bike and best avoided at all costs - lucky I don't live near any
I thought petrol was expensive here at €1.48/ltr but €1.69 is extortionate, no wonder the gilet jaune are out. The pictures are great, as is the thread, you should put it all into a book 'Zen & the Art of Solo Touring'
Thanks for the kind words guys!!! I Am in le mans!!!! Been here about an hour but phn went dead so no pics of 2nd half of today!!! Tbh there was a lot of dual carriageways. They were actually quite fun but not many photo ops.. There is outdoor motorcycle parking next to the hotel. I ask the girl at reception if they had secure parking and she said no,it was full... So I asked about the outdoor parking and she said no it's full... Is said it ain't she said it's booked.. I don't think she knew what I meant so I parked there anyway... Anyhu, the hotel is an ibis...id forgot what shit holes there are. But as I only decide to do this trip for sure a few weeks back, it was pretty much all I could find.. At least the tram goes to the track from right next door!
Just been to the tram station to sort tickets for weekend... stood in a cue for 15 mins to speak to someone and all though the trams depart from There, they only sell train tickets.. The machines are In French and I can't even work out what tram to get from where... tried Google but keep getting French. Guess I shall just join the masses tomorrow or get a cab!!!
Great pics chiz your doing a grand job for a techno phobe I hope you didn’t smoke in the petrol station or use your phone
Trams are easy chiz , the machines are at every stop and they have an English button , choose the 2 trips for €2.90 , one ticket , just lob it in the machine and it'll stamp it . Head to the centre , they have a mcd's but to the left of it on the corner is a lovely place for steak and cheesecake , I was there 3 weeks ago when most of you lot sodded off without me . Although , its 10 pm there so I guess your sorted
I couldn't make heads nor tails of the machine.or see a button for english. Couldn't even find the track on the map or work out what number tram to catch... I'm sure I will work it out.
