As you found out zero fridges/freezers whilst on the ferry but fridge stuff keeps ok whilst off, Have to admit even after 35 years on trucks its always a relief to get through without being checked is a bonus. Big mistake not setting your sat-nav before embarkation every thing helps to save getting lost on the wrong side of the road but a good bonus is you have a left hand drive RV , enjoy your trip and safe travels.

Our first trip abroad in our motorhome we didn't take any meat or diary stuff, I did hide a couple of things, but the next time we just took it all..we've never heard of anyone actually being searched for the food. But understand your first time as it's a worry if you get caught. So sorry to hear about your bikes, typical the police can't help. Hope you enjoy your first trip in your new RV.

Awwww guys, so so sorry about the bikes, hope you get sorted soon. If I had known you were heading out so soon I’d have told you not to worry about the meat and dairy, we took loads with us, end of the day it’s for personal consumption not like you’re selling it. We decided to take ours and if we got checked and told to throw it we would have, they didn’t even bother and we did get checked by security but only asked about knives and possible stow aways. 😊 Every day is a school day. Poor little pooches with those horrible muzzles. ❤️ Have a great time, we’re taking the same trip in 6 weeks in ours 😊👍

The Portsmouth St Malo night ferry has an excellent restaurant, our favourite start to a journey watching the lights of Portsmouth slip by as you eat. Never had any problems with stuff in our fridge. You’ll notice on your travels in France that some of the village signs are upside down, it’s the local farmers showing displeasure. I put our magnetic U.K. sticker upside down on the van to show displeasure over Brexit.

Bad luck on the bike thefts. I would recommend Kriptonite bike locks. There are 2 or 3 kinds, get the most expensive one and it will only require one for two bikes probably. Have had one for 3 years and on one occasion 3 bikes alongside my expensive bike were stolen and mine wasn''t. Bike thieves know considerable effort and time is required to get through a Kryptonite chain or it's lock. They resist upto 30 minutes attack with a large battery powered angle grinder and are impossible to chomp through with chain cutters. If you lose the key though your stuffed. Have a great trip.

Sad start. Put it behind you. Just a tip when dealing with shopping going forward. I do not know what the standard of locks are on the RV. The RV is clearly a UK one as can be seen by the number plates. Now when going into the shopping centres/ super stores. In large towns one of you stay in the van. Is is known that thieves watch the car parks for MH one of the gang members will follow you two into the shop and keep in contact via phone to their partner who will break in and look for passports and Computers iPads and the like. Obviously you are going to leave the vehicle unattended on your travels but large commercial places are not the best to leave unattended. Find a safe stash area in the van which would be difficult to quickly find and put things away there

Cities are obvious places with higher bike theft. Also if you don't know a place then the risk is higher because you may be taking a risk based on poor knowledge. It takes seconds to cut through cheap cycle lock cables. You really need multiple levels of security so the potential thief can see the time spent dealing with it will put them at risk of being caught. You could also put trackers on the bikes.

@@ToKnowFreedom That is CEX Commercial Road. When I first saw the video it looked like you parked the bikes on the main road but watching it again, it's a side road, away from CCTV although there is a bank across the street. There's a bus stop at the entrance which is quite busy but probably nowhere to lock the bikes. Just up the road there is a big cycle parking area where commercial road curves round, or there was. I live outside Portsmouth but have visited that CEX many times years ago. Not by bike though. Last time i cycled into Portsmouth I nearly got knocked off twice!

I know it was a bit of a rubbish start but we tried not to let it get us down! Still lots of great things going on! We just had combination locks so not the most secure that you can get! Yeah I think Michael says it the Scottish way and I say it the English way!!

Throwing away costly food and then going to eat in a restaurant doesn't make sense guys come on. At least that's what the editing makes it look like, correct me if that's wrong.

And also standing out with the bikes I don't think it's a deterrent, they will just barge you out the way and take them, unfortunately it's how it is now riding a £3000 bike down a road now is dangerous as a van will pull in front 2-3 men jump out wack the rider then off on false plates
