Forum International Trip

Sprinter, I think most are arriving at the Park Hotel Bert Badrich on Monday 10/09/2018 and leaving the hotel on Friday 14/09/2018.
Most of the northern contingents are sailing out of Hull to Zeebrugge on Sunday evening 09/09/2018 and sailing back to Hull on Friday evening 14/09/2018. Both crossings are over night.
I booked my accommodation with the hotel directly and saved £30 on booking.com prices.
Get it booked old lad

 

@Sprinter
I’m not going to make it due to w.....w....wo.....wah! Have room booked which is cancellable up to 8th aug 193£ if there’s no rooms left

 

Just looking at dates to see if I can tag along. it looks to me I can join as the start of a Salonika battlefield visit. I'll read through the thread to work out who's traveling from where to which crossing and get myself booked if all the dates fit.

18th/19th September will be the 100th anniversary of the horrendous Third Battle of Doiran where my Granddad was one of the fortunate survivors of the futile second-day assault on Pip Ridge. I'd like to visit the cemetery where many of the men of the Cameronians he led found their final resting place.

More than happy to have company

 

Just me being different and travelling up to Bad Bertrich from Alsace-Lorraine or Elsass-Lothringen as Winglad's Grandfather would have said!

 

Thinking... cheers for all the imfo, Im working out all the tos and fros
These last few posts have been a great help.

 

That’s correct.

When I rang The Park Hotel to book my accommodation I spoke to a charming lady by the name of Ann and at the end of my booking she asked how was I traveling there and when I replied motor-sickle she said ok you’ll need a parking permit, it’s ok they’re free

I don’t know if there’s a limited number of these passes or if you can get them on arrival, just know ones got my name on it

 

I’m Tiglet!!

 

Ha, neither of you pair are Tiglet cos your both to young

 

I emailed the hotel and the lovely Sabine has kindly offered to let me keep "das Motorrad in einem Innenhof abzustellen (mit verschliessbarem Rolltor)"

 

Its an inverted T for Triumph, he lost a wager with Steve McQueen

 

I think you may need a pass for a car but probably not for a bike? (Although that dies conflict with the advice given to Dave) I was told that you couldn't reserve them in advance but that it was no problem getting one.

 

That’s the young lady that took my booking Andy and asked me how I was getting there and said “ Then you’ll need a parking permit”.
