| Hi Ziggi,
I'll have to get the map out tonight, but I think Nogaro is closer to Bordeaux than 300km.
Then again, I've been known to get lost playing squash and putting on jumpers.
I'm a long time Val de Vienne fan - been there about a dozen times over the past 5 years with Byrne-Up, and love it.
I'll be back at Val de V on July17th/18th, again with B-U.
I haven't been to Nogaro yet but I am told that it could have been designed by the same guy that drew up Val de V, but with the addition of a mega straight (got to give the I4s a chance).
I've also ticked off Folembray, Pau Arnos, Croix-en-Ternois and Magny Cours over the years - going back to Croix and to Magny in August (B-U again).
I know riding down to the French tracks seems like a chore, but B-U do an excellent guided ride to the tracks, which is almost as good as a track day itself.
Let me know which trip you decide on, and we'll keep in touch.
