Brittany Ferries, tie down advice
Hi all,
I am about to book a crossing with Brittany Ferries for mid July from either Plymouth - Roscoff or Poole - Cherbourg.
I have never taken my bike on a ferry before and when I have been on ferries with my car i have never paid any attention to the bike 'tie down' arrangements.
Both of these crossings are traditional type ferries (as opposed to fast cats) and are overnight crossings of about 8 hr duration.
Can anybody please give me advice on what tie down arrangement i can expect and any advice on the actual securing of the bike. Also does anybody leave anything on their bikes whilst the bike is on the ferry, such as a holdall strapped to the rack or seat. I would naturally take any valuables and my small tank bag to the deck with me but I wondered about the holdall.
Does anyone have any specific experience of these crossings?
Any advice will be very welcome, Thank you
Lee
