Reims Champagne Rally (Raid Bulles)
Posted By Scoop On 26th August 2021Additional rooms may be available directly from Reims Chapter. Contact Al for details.
*******************************
We join our twinned French chapter for their famous Champagne rally which Hogsback attended for many years. Reims chapter put on a spectacular riding rally travelling through and visiting places we would normally not have access to – imagine 500 Harleys riding through the private champagne estate roads, it’s an experience. This is the French version of our Cirencester rally.
On the Friday, we ride from Ashford to Reims HD for a mid-afternoon short ride followed by a gala dinner at the hotel.
Saturday is a longer ride through fantastic scenery with a winemaker’s breakfast, lunch, winery visits and rest breaks ending up in Troyes where we have yet another gala dinner in the city town hall.
Sunday is an easy morning ride and after a late lunch we have the afternoon to do as we wish, drink more Champagne and chill out.
On the Monday, we will make a leisurely departure and head up to the tunnel stopping for lunch somewhere and maybe taking in a little more of the region’s history and culture. Then sadly, it’s the train back to good old Blighty.
