Le Touquet 2020 .
The biggest beach race in the world.
Held over 3 days at the end of January every year in the up market coastal resort of Le Touquet.Its about an hours ride down the D940 coast road from Calais .
We normally stop for a coffee on the way down and have some lunch in Le Touquet.
We have been going out for the last 10 years on the final Sunday.
This year it will be the 2nd of February.
We have booked the 7.20 euro tunnel going out and the 18.20 return.£15 each way .
If any of you want to join us just book your train .
If you have to return at another time no problem.
We are meeting at the terminal no latter than 6.30am

I have had many makes of tyres over the years but for year round use and long wear life with superb wet grip Michelin Road 5s .
The 4s are good but the fronts feather and make a lot of noise after a while .

What do you use in this cold weather ?
I have been using a keis premium heated sleeveless jacket run off the bike battery.
Halvarsons Merino wool base layer under the Keis.
If its really cold I use my Rukka down jacket on top of these .
Rukka Nivala Jacket ,and pants(with down liner) .
RTS Gortex boots with long Merino socks,Dainese Gortex travel Gloves .
Shoei GT Air 2 Helmet .
This outfit has kept me warm and dry over the Alps and 3 British winters.
It did cost a lot but with a 6 year w'tee on the Rukka and Lifetime on Gortex from leaking I guess its a good investment.
And they say a warm ridder is a safe rider!

Bike refused to start today .
The Meta alarm had gone completely dead .
I decided the only way to cure this once and for all was to remove the Alarm.
After striping of the rear bodywork (the alarm unit is under the tail unit) I cut out the motion senor ,indicator,side light ,led,earth and live wires .
This left just the ignition circuit that had been cut into.
One I found this I cut and re solderd the wires back together..
The bike then started.
