Voodoo Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 Just spent a week touring round Normandy. Compared to Britain the roads are completely empty, although a lot of them are very straight!Le Mont Saint Michelhttp://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee259/Voodoo1972/Normandy/LeMontSaintMichel.jpgAmerican Cemetaryhttp://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee259/Voodoo1972/Normandy/AmericanCemetary.jpgEnglish Cemetary in Bayeuxhttp://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee259/Voodoo1972/Normandy/BayeuxCemetary.jpgSainte Mere Eglise - The first town to be liberatedhttp://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee259/Voodoo1972/Normandy/SainteMereEglise.jpgPegasus Bridgehttp://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee259/Voodoo1972/Normandy/PegasusBridge1.jpgThe first building to be liberatedhttp://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee259/Voodoo1972/Normandy/PegasusBridge2.jpg Quote

Guest Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 That looks awesome, what a nice trip! Would be great to "storm" the Pegasus bridge, pretending to be playing Call of Duty rofl.Scary how big those graveyards are... Looks like a great trip. Quote

Guest Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Looks great, Will be heading for there for my first long distance ride out in Sept so looking forward to it, any tips advice most welcome. Quote
megawatt Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Been to Normandy a few times, never found any straight roads ? Quote
Ninereeds Posted August 18, 2012 Posted August 18, 2012 I've wanted to go to Normandy for a long time but seeing this just made me want to go even more! I had to study it a lot with the Paras and id love to see it in person, same goes for Arnhem. Definitely going to start a rough plan for this now! Quote
Tankbag Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 Great reading this thread, great pics, I'm jealous I need another roadtrip Quote
