NEXT YEARS DATES 2007

[MIKE C (Liverpool Boys)]

Does any one know the dates for next year. My sister is a Biker and is going to the 100th TT, in the family mobile home, or thinks she is. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. DO they clash?
Thanks
Mike

Paddy is also going to the TT, The TT is most likely to be the weekend before. I suspect that LM will be on the 16th and 17th.

The dates are usually confirmed in early November.

So that Discovery channel is broadcasting another road to lemans, but then 2007 and also saw a date which said the weekend of the 9th for the 24 hours on that channel!

Surely that's too early?

I hope Rick is right, or the sh-t will hit the fan. One Bike Babe is in a f---ing tent.

Grand Prix Tours are selling tickets for 2007

The good news 15th-18th June!!!!!!

Great Ormond Street are running a charity to Le Mans also for the 15-18th of June, the idea is to get to Le Mans over the shortest mileage, via checkpoints announced on the day.

[Piglet]

You may be entirely correct but I wouldn't believe the date is correct just because the ticket sellers are going with that one at the moment.  They have been wrong before!   

In 2004 race sunday was I think the 12th so it's not always the third weekend.

Nearly right Piglet - race was on 12/13th.  I remember it well 'cos I got married (again) on the Saturday after LM on 19th.

hasn't it got something to do with the 24th weekend?

[hgb]

Yehh, I think from what I remember it started on one day and ended on the next one. I may be wrong, though.



Silly joke - I know, but the opportunity was there.

its a bit like in which Julian calendar year did new years day and christmas day fall in the same year. it doesn't happen often so think carefully.

so hang on Del....you chose to get married on a date that was likely to clash with LM in most years    How do you get away with that one 

Happy Snapper and I "got together" on that weekend in 2004 at Le Mans - you'd have thought I'd have done a bit better with the date wouldn't you - I was close!!

Just superb planning, Anita.   

Get to celebrate my 'first' anniversary next year, 3 years after getting spliced.

Thats what I always work on Paddy and it always seems to work. If its not I will have to change 13 ferry booking and 25 hotels rooms!

[Bob U]

I reckon on 16th/17th.

Booked the ferry this morning.

Out on the 13th   Back on the 18th.
