Recommend me a good quick route from Calais to Le Mans...

[Greg Masters]

This year's 24 Heures du Mans looks like being a corker.

Problem is that I can't leave until about 23.00hrs on Friday (21st) evening, so need to plan a 'raid' route to Le Mans.

Fact me ......

Greg if you're in a hurry, there is only one way. The A28 towards Boulogne, Abbeville, Rouen, then Le Mans. Takes about 4 and a half hours, according to me mate who's done it a few times. Motorway all the way, but at least you'd make the race in plenty time. Might see ye there

Superslab all the way.

Alternative is train (TGV) via Paris or fly.

Mrs Miggins awaits your arrival, tres humide.

Just a thought but why don't you do a round trip one way on the tunnel and one way high speed ferry Cherbourg - Portsmouth?

Should cost no more than £100.00 combined, gives you a chance to enjoy some Brittany/Normandy twisties and saves retracing your steps on the Autoroute
