RTE Calais including Dambusters SS1000 ride Saturday 23rd March 2019 01:45 departure.
- Thread starter GSears
- Start date
Bit of help, please? Haven't done one of the RTE before with a group of IBA folks..
Overnight Channel Tunnel for 23/03/19 says £42 one way..?! Is there a return fare?
When should I go online and book...,
1. Hotel in Calais,
2. Eurotunnel,
What time for the return journey on the Sunday..?
Does it matter if I wait until nearer the time to decide which bike (choice of 2) to go on?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

Yes there'll be a return fare and it won't be double £42. Book ASAP. You'll need to tell Eurotunnel the details of the bike you're riding so choose first.
As for return time, that's entirely up to you. Some people like to leave at silly o'clock in the morning, others wait till it's warmer. Depends where and when you fancy riding.

Make sure you put in the return date (ie 24th Oct) and it shows you the overnight/day rates (£15 for Folkestone to Calais plus £15 Calais to Folkestone). If you do not put in a return date it will just show you the one way rate of £42....
And don't worry too much about specifying which bike - this is what the help page states
Unless you have purchased Breakdown cover, the only vehicle details that we need are the vehicle type (car/van/motorcycle), the height (over or under 6ft/1.85metres) and confirmation that it is not equipped with an LPG tank. If none of these things have changed we do not need to make any changes to your booking.
Registration numbers are not yet mandatory but do speed up the Check-in process. You can add or change a registration number at any time before travel without penalty.
