*Gulp* I've booked it....

[mistergixer]

Dover to Calais: 19/07/06 08.15
Calais to Dover: 03/08/06 14.00

That's it.
That's the sum total of my plan.
I've got a mate near Barcelona, might make it down there, might not. I'm adopting a Gallic attitude to the whole thing - plenty of shrugging and Cantona-esque monologues: when i am thirsty i drink, when i am hungry i eat, when i am tired i sleep - that sort of thing.
Oh, weapon of choice is a K5 gixer 750, not the ideal touring bike, but i plan to put the sports back into sports touring!
Avanti!
