Hope you won't mind me giving this little event a plug. The Trophees Gerard Jumeaux is held every year around June as a classic parade weekend at the circuit of Croix en Ternois about 50 miles south of Calais. This is a great, laid back, club type events run by the friends of Gerard Jumeaux who sadly died some years ago and the event is held in his honour. He was a sidecar racer and one of the three paddocks is entirely for sidecars. There are around eight classes which caters for most classics. A regular at the event is Ron Chandler. We really love this weekend away as it is only 140 euros including insurance for the whole weekend and you get around an hour a day track time for each machine. The trophies given out on the Sunday are for the strangest of reasons and add to the quirky atmosphere. There's a bar and a band on saturday night and plenty of banter as it's attended by several nationalities. This years event is on the 18th and 19th of June.

This may give a flavour of the event.
