Tankslap takes France (pic heavy)

[Kwacky]

Apologies for those of you who know me on facebook. But for those of you who don't here are some photos from my recent trip to visit Mr and Mrs Cookiemonster












The local circuit. No one was there apart from a few cars on an open day.






Some scenery






Cake Stop

[StMarks]

C'est magnifique.

[Frankie]

[rocket]

Nice looks like a lovely place

[Bratty]

Very nice and nice pics mate.

[D6Nutz]

Looks like a horrible place to live, no idea why mr and mrs cookie moved their


Seriously though, nice pics and it looks absolutely gorgeous there. How did you find getting back on a CBR again ??

[Kwacky]

It took about 20 minutes to get used to it. The brakes are softer than my kwak, as is the suspension and you need to rev it more but even though it's 10 years old it's still a fantastic piece of kit.

Great photos, Kwacky.

I cannot for the life of me understand why Cookie and Jane thought that would be a better place to live than Brum...or even the UK for that matter.

[Kwacky]

Yeah, it's an awful part of the world. Not a patch on Sparkbrook or Mossside.

[Deegee]

Decent coffee would have sold it to me, good company, decent scenery, decent food, zero traffic, rural setting and a free bike to ride whilst there is frankly just taking the p*ss.

Glad you all had a good time.

[C00kiemonster]

Yeah, we did have a good time. Time passes all too quickly though and I'm looking forward to the next one already

The lack of traffic is great, you explain distance in time in France rather than km or miles as it usually takes the same amount of time to get somewhere as there is limited traffic. There are things I miss about the uk, but the traffic ain't one of them

Biggest downside for Kwacky was he bought the cake

[Kwacky]

As King Slapper it is my entitlement to have my servants bring cake to me.

Val de Vienne. It's a nice cicruit. Well laid out. Basic but decent facilities. It's all in great condition and the track looks very smooth.

[Cavetroll87]

Looks a lovely track and quiet as you say, hmmm Slapper Exodus? lol

[Kwacky]

It has been mentioned.

[Kwacky]

It's just over 10 hours and 644 miles from my house.

Not that I've looked into it..........

[Perkles]

[kiwikrasher]
