totaltrials Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Last year, just camped in the trees, no problems.Or you can stay in the huts with are there but you will have to book it before everyone else and it's quite expensive, as above, we just put our tents up in the trees.It pretty easy to get to really if you have a map.Licenses, i think we needed a BIU license and acu license but don't think they checked that.Payed and entered on the day.There is a supermarket a short drive away from buthiers and a little town well close.It will take about 3hours when you get off the ferry but may be longer as there is always traffic around paris, people crashing on the motorways and cars doing 360 tailwhips and stuff, so it slows you down.If I think of anything else i'll post.Phil.

downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 (edited) hmmm, i wanna go But it would take me around 14 hours driving, (and i dont have a car ) so i would probably have to fly there :D Or bike there EDIT: il set off now, meet you's all there in 4 months Edited January 3, 2006 by terror-error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantham Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Yo ben I take it you got back ok yesterday? seemed like you were going the rite way when we left you.If you or joe have got a bike rack im sure we could all get in my car (bardge), will make petrol and ferry costs cheaper.

danny B Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 I think that koxx days will be packed this due to the fact that there will be a uci world cup at the same venue meaning that it is a good opportunity to get some practice in so you never know who mite turn up ey lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossi Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 mike f**king good drivers LMAO. I'm sure Mike can be a good, cautious driver when he wants But yeah, the tailwhips thing is too true, f**king mentalists in Paris. Anywho, I might go again this year, depends if I can snag a lift off someone. I don't fancy driving down there too much, but if it comes down to it, I might drive. Depends if I have any money, holidays and motivation to go Knob Days, we'll see. Last year was a barrel of laughs, so it would be a shame to miss out. Rpsso.
