Wheelers Trip to France 2016

Cross Channel Jaunt

Ten of the more senior members of Rye & District Wheelers ( average age 70 )  made a trip across the Channel from Dover on Tuesday 26 July 2016 and rode a circular route from Calais via Gravelines, Audruicq, Ardres and back along the Canal Road to Calais.

A 50 mile run, interspersed with stops for refreshments at regular intervals to sample the cuisine and hospitality of the area.

Breakfast was taken aboard the Pride of Kent and more refreshment on the same vessel on the homeward journey.

This short film captures only the ‘resting points’ but the ride was also very relaxing with almost perfect weather and flat roads.
