France in June.
Hi all, last September i was supposed to take a trip to France on my v-strom 650 but then i was offered a new job and so i had to postpone my trip.
Now im all set to go again and i just wanted to run my plan by some of our more seasoned travellers to get your opinions/ideas or suggestions.
Firstly im taking the ferry from Portsmouth, arriving in Le Havre at 8am on a June Friday morning, ill then be heading straight down past Orleans, Bourges and Clermont to the Millau bridge, i hope to be at the bridge by Sunday evening.
Then its up to Limoges where ill visit the village of Oradour Sur Glane, ill spend 2 nights here exploring the village.
After that its up to Le Mans to visit the motor museum and visit the famous race track, ill spend 2 nights here also.
Then i plan to head back to Le Havre to catch the Fiday evening ferry back to Portsmouth.
I wont be using any toll roads and ill try to stck to the route nationale as much as possible, im planning on camping all the way and i wont have sat nav. just a good old fashioned map!
So what do you think?
All opinions welcome!
