How much Neil?
So who is going? I am currently a 'possibly' - getting confirmation next week.
£115 , at the present time.
Same as last year, I don't know how many are going till they turn up at the terminal. Last year One guy only signed up on the board on the weds before departure, made one post, and turned up
.Tim got the early ferry 5,30 am, and set off ahead of us. Met up with him at Bordeaux

Missed it last year, be buggered if I'm going to miss it this year. Count me in Neil, although I'll most likley have to meet you somewhere in France after a 2 day blat back across from Serbia. Got to be in NS for my birthday party
"Take each day as it comes, don't set yourself a target. if you miss it, you'll be chasing yourself to catch up, or you'll have to change the "plans".
If the road looks better elsewhere, go down it, and find out.
The biggest bonus - No plans = nothing can go wrong"

I have read your first Morocco report with interest - this included the initial thread similar to this one and the aftermath report started by Whatton.
I was unable to answer the following question from the above;
What happens if you breakdown while in Morocco? I'm on an 1150 Adv. Its an 05 plate with 8k on the clock - ABS model.
I guess with a bunch of GS'ers we could fix most things ourselves but there could be an issue that couldn't be fixed by ourselves!! I really don't want to sound like a div, but I'm interested to know. -- It may be your bike and not mine so good for us all to know.
Trying to fend for myself I have found out that you my need to load the bike into the back of a van and transport it back to Spain where BMW assist will takeover! How realistic or expensive would that be?
I am happy with the format, I can organise TPFT insurance, 2 to 2 1/2 days down through France and Spain sounds ace. Only 4 days Holiday for a big trip.
Please answer the above and I really really could be in. I'm well up for an adventure and all the surprises that go with it.
Cheers
Dean.

You get it fixed or back to spain. The same as everyone else who ever goes to morocco.
If you were to be immobile and need a van, the cost would depend on where you were, who you know, and how good you are at haggling
it's what everyone else does. I haven't got BMW assist, so would also need to get back to UK. But if you worried about everything, you wouldn't leave the house.
You don't seem to be, judging by the questions asked

Count me in for this trip! I`ll sort the tunnel and work and see you at the tunnel. Do you need any info from me or is it just a case of turning up and getting on with it?

He normally likes to know if you dress to the left or the right before he gets it on
Depends what day of the week it is and on what side of the road we are on....

You've got it - turn up and get on with it .
Nearer the time, i'll need everyones mobile number, and if you have a GPS unit.
Everyone will get a list of everyones phone number, and if they have a GPS.
Some may want to use the cheaper option of a ferry crossing, or maybe booked on a different time train ( earlier please, not later than the time i'm crossing), as last year, we all met at the service station on the road outside the channel terminal.
Those who cross earlier on the ferry, we meet along the road on the way to to bordeaux.
I'm afraid it's autoroute all the way to bordeaux, as the point of the ride is to get to Morocco.
Once in Morocco it's more relaxed .
It's a Gonzo road trip
