No reason why not. At least we can get an idea where we'll sail from and what time they are so we'll know what's what.

Yes I'm deffo.

Just noticed this topic...great one! I would love to join/meet you guys when you arrive here for that weekend/race at Assen. But rightnow I am planning an summer holiday with gf to the sun at mid/end of Sept so I cannot join you guys (I planned to visit that weekend the WSB round in Portimao... ).

Ok i think if were gunna do this we gota start putting plans into action as the best ferry bookings are already selling out, heres a link to the ferry booking page http://www.stenaline.co.uk/ferry/routes ... ikes-assen

Booking as a party of 4 leaving thursday night and returning sunday night including overnight cabins is under £100 each. you've then got accomadation on top for when we get to assen

chaps you can count me in regardless, so if someone has the time and wants to take ownership of this please do.

As Paul says. The only thing we may have trouble with is getting the ferry back on Sunday evening unless we leave Assen before the racing is finished. Getting the ferry back on Monday night makes more sense as far time constraints are concerned but I will go with the flow. I've booked the time off regardless. I nominate Tony as Captain!

ey ey captain.

Theres a ferry back leaving around 9pm ish sunday which i thought would be possible but it wouldnt leave us much room for getting lost, breakdowns etc. The ferry back monday morning is fully booked so next one will be monday evening which im also cool with, we can party sunday night then

What we need is someone in the know to recomend a hotel thats reasonably close to the circuit and bike friendly/safe.

I know some of us aint keen on camping but to give us another option i do have a campervan and a huge awning that sleeps 4 on its own plus living space. Granted theres no shower but just putting the option out there.

monday evening return for the win. sight seeing on the way back

So thursday eve ferry over then? cabins are compulsary on overnight ferrys. You've got single cabins, twin cabins and 4 berth cabins.
