Hi all,
After many requests to have the coach picking up from Sidmouth & Seaton and to arrive in time for 07.00hrs start from Minehead I have been able to reorganise the
pick up times.
BIKES, these will fit in the large lockers under the coach, the height of the lockers is 900mm this will mean front wheel out and seat post down or OUT.
No responsibility can be taken by Crudge Coaches for damage to bikes during transport, I will take some sheets and card for packing.
PICK UP TIMES.
Seaton coach park 04.15hrs
Sidmouth at Waitrose bus stop 04.30hrs
Honiton at Dowell street car park 05.00hrs
Minehead arrive 06.30hrs
If you would like to bring a warm top for the journey you will be able to leave it in kit bag on the coach which I will collect from the coach company after the event, you will have to then arrange to collect it from me.
Please can you bring the correct money for the coach £8.00
My mobile number is 07791 837 591.
I hope you all enjoy riding this Pro stage of the Tour of Britain it is an awesome route.
Neil |

Final Stage
2nd June
Morning spent in busy SETE; working French port, market, old fishing quarter. Leisurely time spent navigating inland lagoons on SETE MONTPELLIER cycle paths; quite beacharea. Roll into MONTPELLIER very busy; vibrant centre, music festival in flow, a real young peoples place. Hostel in state of restoration; so short spell of sightseeing,very agreeable menu du jour.
The final km total: 1236, to St ROCH stsation. Comfortable TGV to Paris..... and rain!!! Final leg to Le Harve having crossed Prais on Metro; sunny evening to set up on our way home.
A wonderful experience on the bike; no question, the best way to see France off the beaten track.
