ABR Dambusters run 2013- The 70th Anniversary of Op CHASTISE
Re: ABR Dambusters run 2013- The 70th Anniversary of Op CHASTISE
Hi Steve/Mark well i'm fine with this if thats the plan i've only got a little 800 mind so i might have to ride the slipstream
the distances the other side look pretty comfortable with the Eindhoven camp over. Look forward to meeting up with all those that we can, just wondered if Brian/Picos is still on for a similar route as he'd looked into keeping off the main drag & a stop over in Holland

Hi Qplate / all fellow riders
That's fine with me and no matter what we are riding 350 / 800 / 1500 cc I am hopping its not a race it's a meet up with like minded bikers on a great looking trip we need to find out if Brian / picos and any others wona tag along to get the ferry an over night camp in holland & if Brian is still ok sorting out a easy way there that would be great. I no by one of karnevil posts he is on an early ferry but it would be good to meet up with him over the water thats if he is ok with that .
Thanks Steve

Im off up to the Horizons Unlimited the following week, so can't stay on.tefflon wrote:Hi Markoh
I thinking of staying a bit longer may be till the 30th but I'm unable to set off any earlier due to work . I have stayed in co blend about 7years ago not camping I may say and have ridden a bit of the Rhine valley and what I saw was great there is lots of places to stop and take pics and have a drink an some food
Thanks
Steve

I've contacted a camp site near Eindhoven today, as soon as I hear anything I'll keep folks posted.
I'm away for a couple of days with work so it might not be before Wednesday though.
Cheers

Hello All.
I think I've got the gist of it.
23rd May 10.15 ferry Dover--Calais.
Head up to Holland get a few miles under the belt & camp for the night, possibly near Eindhoven which MarkN is checking up on.
This all suits me & I prefer a Ferry as it seems like I'm then on holiday.

Hi All,
This is the campsite I'm thinking of;
http://www.staatsbosbeheer.nl/Overnacht ... ?tab=Kaart
Proving to be a bit tricky to get hold of but it does come recommended and the prices are per pitch and not per tent, so we should be able to get 3 or 4 tents on a pitch.
Cheers
Mark

Re: ABR Dambusters run 2013- The 70th Anniversary of Op CHASTISE
I make this campsite west of Stripje & near Endhoven 190miles/5.5hours from Calais (no tolls or motorway)
Which leaves us 100miles to do on Day2 to the campsite up near the dams @Käfernberg 25
Hückeswagen
42499
I'm up for that,
How about everybody else?
