| Hi Fiscus,
Biarritz - just down the road. No excuse then.
Regarding trashing the bike, Byrne-Up require you to take out a special travel insurance policy with 4 Counties, that will repatriate you and your bike if trashed. Seen it used several times, even getting bikes back to Jersey no problem. Cost is about £40.00.
If you go on the guided ride down with them, they use a luggage van that can pick up any bikes which...er..break down after an interface with the scenery.
A separate company sends an F-O truck down to all the B-U track days with, tyres (loads of), basic spares, consumables etc (and up to 4 hire bike GSXR 750s, if needed).
There's also a good Ducati dealer in Pau who I've made use of for spares, and at Nogaro there is a resident race team/school who run Ducatis, and who lent me the battery from their 749 race bike last year.
