I finish work at 4.30. Warwick services is about 30 minutes away. Could you make 5.30?

It'll take us about 3 hours to get to the hotel from there.

Warm (high 20's) and mixed based on what i can see. As usual they dont know i suspect.

We've had a lot of storms and hot days.

I'd assume we might get wet occasionally.

I'll keep an eye on the forecast which isnt usually more accurate until Monday for Wednesday i reckon.

I've been watching it and it constantly changes - they havent got a clue i suspect. Its muggy and then stormy and has been for a couple of weeks for the whole of france - jet stream is all over the place apparently.. I'm expecting to be dry and wet every day sadly.

I'm hoping i can stay ahead of the rain tomorrow, looks like i might get wet nearer Metz.

It looked a bit patchy so I've gone for my Klim jacket and leather jeans. I've got some over trousers in the top box. I'm hoping I don't have to wear them.

My new Dainese's are textile and showerproof (and quick dry) so i've gone for them with my waterproof oversuit in my bag just in case of it chucking down.

They forecast crap weather at Silverstone last week and got it wrong. Storms are very unpredictable. Either way there is nothing we can do about it.


Still wearing leather two piece with waterproofs at the ready.

I've had a message from the guy off the Street Triple forum checking to see what time we're arriving. I told him not before 8.30.
