How good is this?
A new member Scud was coming round Lincs with us.. changed his mind. Not because of the weather. Because he booked a Ferry and packed his tent on his Burgman 400. Gone touring France - just like that. On his own. What a great thing to do. Last message I got he had been rained off the Bike, but was now set up on a neat site. Heading off in the am.

Re: How good is this?
Hi , scud here, re my French trip. Weather wasn't good from the start, had been expecting better (or at least hoping),first day was poor, at one stage took cover in a bus shelter in a little village.Eventually got down to Limoge after spending some time near Tours,(including 1 entire day in tent due to yet more rain).When another day dawned, heavy with rain,I packed up and headed home, having spent 7 days there and not the 12 as planned. Came back in one day, total of 730 miles plus ferry from Calais,took 19 hours including petrol and grub stops.At least I know why the rivers are so big over there ----it's the same reason we have the b****y Lake District !!!!! But I'll go again and again--until I get it right!
cheers scud

To Scud and yourself both for having a sense of adventure
I do like a good road-trip, or hearing about someone elses.
Geat camping to be had in France too
