Le Mans to Berlin and a bit beyond

I would wind your awning out or you will have another C/van outside your door overnight...

That was job number one.

The ACO do mark out the plots pretty well.





When, 15 or more years ago it was a very unofficial campsite (actually a car park, which we campers took over) it was a bit more anarchic, but I don’t recall any trouble.

As I and my friends guessed, the most popular spot is to the right of the site, so I am glad I made the effort to arrive early. Not having camped at Arnage for years, I really didn’t know the form, so an early arrival was always a good idea.

I asked the ladies on the gate, how the multi-place areas get marked off. Apparently, people arrive early (I think at about 08:00) and arrange for them to be marked out:




That is good to know for the future, as we might have two vehicles next year.

Home, sweet home:

It’s a bit down on horsepower, but it trundles around just fine:

Best to check that nothing has changed or closed. The Bar du Centre in Arnage, a steady (electric assisted) 10 minutes from the campsite at Arnage Corner.





Euro fizz is EUR 7.

No trip report is complete without a picture of a motorcycle. Here’s two, ridden by Frenchmen:

I love my P-Line E-Brompton curtesy of @Fluffmeister. They are perfectly fine, I d imagine even better on a smooth bit of cycle path.

I’d check but it’s raining.

It was still standing up this morning.
