looking to travel over to France to do a few bike rallies not to far over ...but cannot find where to look anyone any ideas??? cheers Potts

I'm heading to Showbike Aquitaine, on the Atlantic coast south of the Gironde, the weekend after B-Day at Lauwe; and the weekend after that to Run Cap Sud (the French drag racing championship) near Limoges. Both of these are a fair trek (unless you're on a BMW ), so not really doable in a weekend's trip.

Freewheels is a massive event, south of Clermont Ferrand. I went there in 2001, which was the last year at the old location. They started up again last year at a new location, and it's on again early August of this year. Again, it's quite a distance from Calais.

Slightly closer is the Hangar Des Celtes rally in Brittany. I've never been to that one, but I've read reports and it looks like a fair size event.

Check out the calendar pages on the Sportster Club de France website for more more ideas.
