Le Mans MotoGP 2022?

After watching the MotoGP today on TV I thought about maybe another trip across next year to sit in the pissing rain trackside.... as we have done already in 2012 and 2019.

The dates haven't been published yet but gambling on the same weekend as this year for 2022 I had a quick look through the accommodation on booking.com.

This time I looked  nearer to the circuit than we found last two occasions. Then we had been in  Alençon,  either in the Formule 1 or the Resto Novo. Both around 35 miles north of the circuit.

The GP race day was today 16th May 2021.

Gamble 1 is that it it will be the weekend of 13th to 16th May.  Oddly, booking.com had a lot of places to choose from. With the filters set for free cancellation and no prepayment that was reduced quite a bit but came up with a reasonably priced Appart'City Le Mans Centre. It's close to the station.  It's also only 6kms to the circuit.

Gamble 2! Changing the dates to the following week in case Gamble 1 was wrong, brought up a whole load of different options and fewer of them. It may simply be that it is more than a year away and not everyone posts their prices and availability. Rather than risk being in northern Alençon again, I have booked the Ibis Hotel opposite the station!  

I can keep an eye on the situation and will have to cancel one of these anyway and maybe both during the year as plans evolve.  Both of them are cheap.

At the moment my brother not looking to enthused. I have less time to spend on bike trips away than he does and Le Le Mans is the easiest to get to.
