    sat 5pm at Richard's / mine / 3 tuns
    ie tunnel times / cars / hotel etc
    what do you think ?

    James
  • own room for me too please...if you need any help let me know
  • The response is fantastic and I'm looking forward to a great trip.

    I have cocked up the doodle page this evening but have asked for Martin to sort this out. Martin Hall and I want to share a room.

    We are planning on 20 people going. I can carry me and four people and will be towing the club trailer that takes twelve bikes. James can take four people with bikes.

    Thus totals thus far are 9 people and 16 bikes we transport for 11 people (two/three more cars?) and 4 bikes. Any offers??
  • THE THREE TUNS LOOKS GOOD FOR A QUICK MEETING. i THINK 20 IS TOO MANY FOR MY HOUSE!!
  • Can't make the 3 Tuns this weekend. In addition to poor fuel economy my car offers the following options;
    - Four/five people + 3 bikes in the boot + roof rack,
    - Six/seven people (two passengers need to be shortish!) + no boot space + roof rack.

    ACCOMMODATION -

    Rich - I've deDoodled your cock-up.
    James - you say en suite. I think you mean your own room, from previous chat. I've put you down as such on the Doodle.

    The following people - it would be great if you could just let us know before Saturday's meeting what your accommodation choice is. Then Stef can arrange rooms and together with knowledge on cars, we can know the total cost.

    Note: all rooms at the Best Western Diksmuide have en-suite bathrooms.

    ps Am not around Saturday - but put my name down as something like middle group map holder.
  • Info:
    it it helps, I have a 3 bike car carrier so can carry 3 bikes (1 being mine) and 4 people comfortably in the car.
    Happy to assist in any way.
  • I can't do a Saturday meeting but can do after the Sunday ride in the Tuns :-)
  • James

    The cheque's in the post (honestly). Might struggle to make the pub on Sat (some insistence I look after the kids - very unreasonable). I have a car and a three bike rack. Will have to check with 'er indoors if I am allowed to take it away that weekend.

    Adam
  • i cant make the pub on saturday either,
    once everyone lets me know if they want to share or not (on doodle above, or stefan_dixon@hotmail.com if you prefer)
    will sort the rooms.
    dont think we short of offers, but if it helps i can drive, 5 in the car, no bikes
    or 3 in the car + 3 bikes.
  • sounds like a Sunday meet after the ride would work!!!........Have said Martin...own room please.
  • Likewise.
  • Cheques delivered to James, doodling done, can't make the pub (sorry), also can't help with transport (sorry again).
    Chris
  • So Meeting SUNDAY 12pm at the 3 Tuns

    James
  • got some rates from the hotel. they charge quite a premium for twin room over single, so reduction for sharing not as much as i would have hoped. looks like saving of 50 euros /per person if you share, so about £45.
  • My car booked on the tunnel
    fri 17th dep 08.20
    sun 19th dep 16.20
    ( last book in 30 mins before )
    over to richard to coordinate cars

    Looks like
    £260 own room
    £200 if you share
    ( TBC )

    thanks everyone for deposits
    only Daniel outstanding
