Are there any NOC members who are going to Spain in Sept?

I have just received an email from Brittany ferries saying that their boat is returning to Plymouth and not Pompey. Grrr.

I'm really undecided but need to cancel the ferry soon if no one else is going.

Just check that it is still on. I, and other Brits I know, have cancelled from the MC Indianos Rally (the other one) and I have just had a refund of the rally deposit.

We have booked for the North of Spain, and then the Colombres, and aren't sure if we will be attending either yet! It would depend on the quarantine situation.

Hi guys, 

 So its been decided for me. Brittany Ferries have just cancelled my outward sailing, so considering how often they sail, Ive no option but to bin it this year. The first one I will have missed in 25yrs......

Check the ferries John !

Not surprising really, yesterday France admitted that they should be in lockdown, but are trying to avoid it at the moment. I suspect other countries like Spain will end up following France. I suspect the ferry company could see the writing on the wall. 

 

There are some UK MAG organised rallies planned, but for how long is anyones guess.

Does anyone know if ferries to both Bilbao, and Santander, are both cancelled at the end of September?    If so, both the Moto Piston, and the Moto Indians rallies will probably be cancelled.

I trail my bike up from Valencia, but, if the Colombres Rally is not cancelled, will not stop for fuel anywhere near Madrid!

Hi all, just have been advised that our possible return ferry has been put back by one day, but as we were hoping to return on Wed ( now Thurs) not a major problem so far.

Hans, what day (the cancelled one) were you going?

Still undecided, will make final decision nearer the time, as everything is paid.

John O, and john S, my ferry was 22 sept dep from Pompey to Santander. I have advised moto piston ,but they made no mention of cancelling in their reply. Suggest you e-mail Frank to confirm. I doubt that the Dutch will be going so numbers will be well down.such a shame.
