Winter Training Weekend Feb 2012 @ PORTUGAL - leaving next Friday for the SUN whooppeeee

edited November 2011 in General
I put a post up a while back for a 'Winter Training Weekend' away and received quite a bit of interest. I can now clarify dates and indeed some costs.

- Friday, February 10th to Tuesday 14th
- Destination - Algarve, Portugal
- flights via easyjet currenlty £135 (including bike but hand luggage only) using both Stansted (out) & Luton (return)!!
- accomodation (based on the 4 confirmed riders) = £138. This cost will reduce slightly if there are more interested in coming... it sleeps 8-18!!! (I think) http://www.dcvillas.co.uk/villas.asp
- Airport transfers being sorted as I type - Strappy will sort UK side and at the Faro side it will be c€120 return split between us
- itinery = arrive early Friday get sorted with bikes etc - 30-50 mile spin in the afternoon. saturday 100 miler 'ish, Sunday out with local club (prepare for a beasting!!), Monday 60-80 ish and pack up bikes... Tuesday home. Lurvely!

All routes will be pre planned (with the exception of the club run... that will be a mystery tour!!)

Will be booking within days!



The flights won't stay this cheap for long so if there are any more advances on Mois, Strappy, Phil K & Scouse let me know ASAP.
