UKRM Undergound Railway - Paris
|
Is anyone going to/near Paris soonish after next Friday & would have
space to take a front mudguard?
|
Going to Chimay. Could arrange an RV in the hotel in Cambrai on the
evening of the 14th.
|
Thanks for the offer but I think that's a bit far out of Paris. His
fuel costs to collect it would be pretty much what postage from here
would cost.

|
If the UR via darsy etc is logistically challenged then I am off to the
Black Forest via Le Havre next month. I'll be travelling down the M4 to get
to Portsmouth on 15 Aug, overnight ferry, through Paris[1] on 16 Aug to
Black Forest. Return leg will involve an overnight stop near Roissy/CDG on
21st as I'm taking the sprog to Parc Asterix.
|
A 'Plan B' - marvellous! I wasn't going to bother asking about the
underground railway to Nairobi, but maybe I should...
|
I was just talking to my mum last night about taking the grandparents out to
Malindi for a week as they used to live there.
|
Fancy leaving one of them behind & taking a fairing sub-frame instead?
|
TTYTT I could quite happily leave both behind, but that would be unfair.
I don't think we'll be going til late oct/nov though.
|
|
PS - Anyone know the best deals on flights to Kenya ?
|
|
[1] I'm driving 400 miles that day so I'd rather do an exchange on the
return leg as ton ami can come to my hotel. I can even leave it at
reception if he gets all gallic with punctuality.
|
|
depends on what you mean by "soonish". I'll be there end July/start of
August.
|
That would be soon enough.
|
Where abouts in Paris does it need to go? I'll be at La Defense via
Gare du Nord, but can be a bit flexible.
|
|
How big's the mudguard?
|
If I just wrap it in bubblewrap it'll be about 700mm x 240mm x 240mm.
|
plastic or metal?
|
I wasn't so much concerned about the weight as to putting it through
the metal detector at Waterloo International.
|
Ah right. It's completely metal-free.
|
Anyway, let me know when the auction's finished.
|
It's not pink, is it?
Should be feasible - now you just need to the Swindon (or where-ever
it is you are) -> Enfield leg of the ukrm-ur sorted.
My suggestion would be via Aylesbury, passed to someone else at the
pub who also works in The City. Paging dwb or Statto, perhaps?
