neils on wheels Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 Does anybody have any details or experience of travelling to the Andorra roud of the world championship? I note that last year the trial was based in Sant Julia de Loria, whilst this year it is listed as La Rabassa, which I believe is just a few Km away. I'd be keen to know where is the best place to be based & what is the best airport to fly into. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 No close airports apparently Barca or Girona are better than toulouse, all over 100kms away. Try the fim website might have an address on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnq Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 I have not been to the world round but have riden with motoventures in Andorra. best way is to fly to Barcelona and then catch the novatel bus from right outside the airport door. Takes 3 to 4 hours with a coffee stop half way, 5 transfer each way each day. costs approx 65.5 euros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 OK. Saw this but was in Gatwick en route home. Now home and have the info to hand so... Airports: Barcelona 225km Tolouse 220km Last year we flew to Barcelona and stayed overnight - I think it was the Novotel. Nice hotel. It's hot as hell and the sections are up around 2000 metres so be prepared to be out of puff! Some nice restaurants and bars around, but the hotels themselves aren't up to much. There's an FIM Ladies World Championship Round on the Saturday before. BTW, prepare to have your car searched as you leave the principality. They're kind of officious.
