Normandy

Thought I’d share a few of my pics from the last few days, been riding round the Normandy Beaches.

Been to them, the story where that Dakota is was moving

Very nice! I’ve still not been, which is pretty shameful considering… Kids today don’t know they’re born, imagine being 18 and storming the beaches of Normandy :w00t:

awesome!

something else to put on my must do list! there’s an author named Martin Pegler who has a guesthouse and does tours over there, fella really knows his stuff, he wrote the well known sniper book, ‘Out Of Nowhere’ the history of the military sniper, great book!

i passed over the Pegasus Bridge when i went fishing out in France, i hear there’s a museum right by it>? didn’t have time to stop:(

Cool photos and loving your crash helmet! :slight_smile:

:slight_smile: nice shots!

Cheers guys, ended up taking over 800 photos over the course of 4 days.

Ratty, yes there is it’s called the Pegasus Memorial, they’ve got a museum plus the original bridge, a bailey bridge, a reproduction glider and a section from one of the original gliders used to land near the bridge. Well worth a visit
