Mate getting info for you now.
Here is a rough guide:

13/6/10: Depart UK, Plymouth to Santander )
14/6/10: Arrive Santander, drive to Pau, check in to Hotel Villa Navarre
15/6/10: Trackday at Pau Arnos
16:6/10: Check out of Villa Navarre, drive to Hotel L'Orangerie

19/6/10: Saturday in Tours
20:6/10: Tours to Calais, 16:20 Eurotunnel crossing

 

I'm going via the LeMans 24 hour race, so out on the Newhaven Diepe ferry, to Lemans by Friday evening, stay for the whole race, spend Sunday night in Tours at a hotel then down to Pau the next day. then as above.

 

"What to do at french toll booths if you're alone? Getting out at each one sounds like a pain"

You can buy a dongle that auto charges and opens the barrier automatically.

Thanks for reminding me to get one!

 

John how much are these fobs and how long do they last for?

 

Theres a 30 Euro deposit and a 2 euro a month charge for the dongle then you just drive through the lanes marked "T". (toll charge is added to your credit card)

I have just registered for one - but the site is in French! - waiting for a confirming email.

I'll let you know what happens.

 

Do you have the link for this? I can't make this trip (gutted), but I am going to Le Mans and could do with getting the toll issue sorted in advance!

 

 

Paul, after Stevo's tip I went looking for that "dongle" thing, so far found this page, if you put it through Google Translate it sorta works :0 I'll try signing up.

 

Zorro, I almost ordered one like that 2 days ago. One with suction cups, so that my credit card doesn't slip out

 

Pardon my ignorance, but what's at Tours?
