Howdy,

I was wondering if anybody know if there are cross border checks (or websites to check to find out) between France and Belgium on the A16 road? I'm going on a baccii run next Sunday (anybody lives in Kent and wants to tag along be my guest)

The reason I am asking is because I heard on the news that Belgium imposed checks after the Paris attacks. I don't know how to check if they are still doing this.

Thanks in advance

I wouldn't worry. It'll be a short delay.

Just try not to look shifty and don't hide anything up your bum.

We do, but only if they jump the barrier on the tube.
