i always found formula one hotels were a pittance and always available. aand you can book your next night at another one before you leave your current one.
Nearest one is 30km away.
you want to sty in an air BNB during the rally weekend? youll miss all the fun and atmosphere if thats the plan
I'm not a camper, so will probably leave bike there and get taxi back to bed!

well if thats yer preference, so be it... a lot of gatherings arent in the most populated areas so taxis may not be that easy late at night and sunday mornings. just a thought. you'll be missing the best bits though imo but if you cant camp, well, you cant camp

Ive done my camping in past at Le Mans, Assen, Spa, Bol etc. I dont have the gear anymore and quite happy to sleep in a proper bed!

Up at Eurokat I stayed in local hotel, worked ok, but you're right, taxi not that easy to find. I like to travel light, I'm not forking out for camping gear and then stacking bike with loads of bags.

Found a place 10 mins away, they'll put my bike in garage for me if I want and advise me of some good local places to see, so I'll either leave bike at venue or at hotel and taxi in and out staying for as long as I like.

Looking forward to some good rides out.

So we got jmac and Jonty on the list so far.

Anyone else finalized plans as of now?

Not that I‘m rushing things… just take it as a heads up 😬

Excellent!
Are you and Lex up for camping, which means breakfasts at the site? Organizers need to know rough numbers for the caterer. I‘ll announce you as soon as you let me know.

You get my address and mobile no. via pm

I don't think Lex is coming along to the rally, I just meeting up for a coffee as he's near the ferry port.
I will be camping at the rally, and breakfast is always appreciated 😂👍👍
