2023 Subscriptions Tom Hill Posted January 8, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Billy I have requested to be part of the group as I couldn't see anyway to add the transfer. I emailed them and they have added me manually to the shuttle. so no need to do anything, other than accept me as part of the group. Thanks.

AllanM Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Regarding cars, should we summarise what we have available and see what combination works? I have large people carrier type car which gives us a few options, the likely ones being: 3 people and 3 bikes inside the car 2 people and 4 bikes inside the car 6 people and no bikes - it would be a challenge to get luggage for 6 in the car! If need be, I'm sure I could hire/borrow a roof rack and get 4 bikes on the roof and 4 people inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions charlie p Posted January 8, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Billy et al I have registered today. Have yet to tell the missus. Hope some kind soul will give me a berth in their car. I am still unwell and now on a course of antibiotics so at least I have an excuse for this irrational decision. martin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions martin Posted January 8, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Might have another plus 1. My mate who did LBL and RVV with me will be in Paris the weekend before as his wife is running the marathon there. He's trying to work out if he can go awol and join us. He also points out that FC Lille are at home to Valenciennes on Saturday night in a derby match. Chance for Buddies to see some big game football?

Life Members chung Posted January 8, 2014 Life Members Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Cheers Billy & Martin, I'm booked in the same hotel for 2 nights (Friday & Saturday) leaving Sunday! However, I'm being anti-social & having a room to myself as I'm just a nightmare for room share! Also, I can always give the excuse of "sleeping in" come the day! Billy, do I pay you the entry fee as you're the group organiser? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
