The spectacular sound and light show that pays tribute to Victor Hugo's Les Misérables

The iRewind experience @ Frappadingue Montreuil -Sur-Mer | Fun Run | Running | Demo video

The OPAL frappadingue X'TREM remain forever the cradle of frappadingue. Following the imagination of Marc DEVINS and a team of friends, no less crazy, she saw the day October 10, 2010.

Montreuil sur mer, historical city, with its Vauban citadel, ramparts, city of Jean Valjean (the poor), with its river and its marshes will be shown over time that the choice was wise.

The frappadingue pioneer of obstacle courses in France, was able to cause early momentum, a phenomenon for such tests.

Able to gather on a unique path, all categories of seasoned athletes or novice riders and non-riders, La frappadingue printed in the minds and in the event, solidarity and mutual support are essential vectors. Far from the lap times, the event's success, of course, the 2500 crazy brave who dared to launch in the first year arena. 2500 crazy with crazy costumes that give the frappadingue this atmosphere of doubt carnival.

The fourth edition was a great success, registrations were closed in 5800 in 50 hours. An edition with new workshops, the pig hanged, the montagnolet ... an atmosphere that made the reputation of Frappadingues. 13000 spectators for an unforgettable show full of good humor. Thank you to the Smurfs, cows, Marsupilami, Super Heroes, Miss, pirates and again, again ....

VW T5 Road Trip - France April 2019 - Not VanLife

This is not a Van Life Video

It has been a long spring and summer and most f it has been spent travelling around France, Belgium, Holland and Germany in the VW T5, the Mercedes Benz 608D Fire Engine Camper and the Renault 4.

This is the first of a number of films made while travelling.

In this short film I document the main points of a road trip we tool to the Haut Languedoc in April.

Leaving Cambridge and travelling through the Channel Tunnel onwards to Amiens for La Grande Réderie d'Amiens, on around Paris to Orleans, driving through the centre of France to Clermont-Ferrand and finally to the Haut Languedoc and Sète and the Mediterranean. Heading back we spent another day in Amiens and then the final afternoon and evening in the citadel of Montreuil-Sur-Mer.

This film has no talking, no explaining on how to information, it is just a document of 8 days spent travelling and being in France, April 2019.

Fort Knokke

Fort Knokke or Fort de Cnocke or Fort de la Knocque or Fort de Knocke was an important fortification that defended western Flanders from the 1580s until it was demolished in the 1780s. During its 200 year history, the place was held by the Spanish Empire, Kingdom of France, Habsburg Austria and the Dutch Republic. The existing defenses were improved in 1678 by the famous military engineer Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban. The fort was attacked by the Grand Alliance in 1695 during the Nine Years' War but the French garrison successfully held out. It was captured from the French by a ruse in 1712 during the War of the Spanish Succession. Control of the fort and other strong places in the Austrian Netherlands was a key feature of the so-called Barrier Treaty in 1713. The French captured the fort after a two-month siege in 1744 during the War of the Austrian Succession. Emperor Joseph II had the citadel demolished in 1781. The site is on the Yser River about 8 kilometres southwest of Diksmuide, Belgium.


The site of Fort Knokke is at the confluence of the Yser River and the Ypres Canal in the municipality of Lo-Reninge. It is approximately 17 kilometres northwest of Ypres. At the location, a draw bridge spans the Yser a few meters below the junction of the two streams. The trace of the one-time fort can still be clearly seen on a satellite image.


The Ypres Canal flows into the Yser at the left. The view is from the bridge looking southwest. The wedge of land between the streams is the site of the citadel.


The Knokkebrug carries east-west traffic across the Yser. The modern draw bridge is located at the northern limit of the former fort's defenses.


A fort was first erected at the site by the Spanish between 1584 and 1591 during the Eighty Years' War. The able Spanish general Alexander Farnese, Duke of Parma had captured Ypres and Veurne. The fort was intended to block raiding parties of Dutch rebels coming from the port of Ostend. The successful Siege of Ostend removed the Dutch threat in 1604 and the fort fell into disuse. Spain awoke to the location's strategic importance during the Franco-Spanish War. In 1649 a new fort was constructed in the fork between the Yser River and the Ypres Canal.


France acquired the Castellany of Veurne-Ambacht by the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle in 1668. King Louis XIV of France wanted a double line of fortresses to protect the northern border of his kingdom. The fortifications expert Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban immediately noted the importance of its location and set to work redesigning Fort de la Knocque in 1678. The core of the fort was a triangular island on the south side of the streams' confluence. A hornwork and ravelin with brick parapets protected the southeast side. The fort was expanded between 1690 and 1692 with the addition of two bastions, one on the north side and one on the south. Ravelins were added on the east and west sides, while three lunettes completed the defenses. All the new works were constructed of earth. Sometime between 1692 and 1712 a wide moat was added on the east and west sides.


Fort de la Knocque was attacked by the Grand Alliance during the Nine Years' War. In June 1695, the army of King William III of England was encamped at Aarsele between Tielt and Deinze. After detaching 11 squadrons of cavalry to join Maximilian II Emanuel, Elector of Bavaria's forces at Ninove, the army moved south on 10 June to threaten the French lines. French commander Marshal François de Neufville, duc de Villeroi put his defenses on alert at Veurne, Fort de la Knocque, Ypres and Menen.

Plaquettes de frein : Les conseils de nos garagistes / Top Entretien #1 (avec Denis Brogniart)

Un système de freinage bien entretenu joue un rôle primordial dans le confort de conduite et la sécurité routière. Pour limiter les risques d'accident, il convient donc d'entretenir son véhicule et de le faire réviser régulièrement par des garagistes professionnels.

Plaquettes de frein, tambours, étriers, disques de freins, etc. Plusieurs appendices mécaniques participent à un freinage efficace. Au moindre signe de dysfonctionnement, les experts Top Garage seront à même d'examiner votre voiture et de trouver rapidement les causes du problème.

Dans le cadre d'un entretien auto de qualité, nos garagistes recommandent une révision des plaquettes de frein tous les 15 000 kilomètres environ. Selon le type de véhicule et votre style de conduite, elles devront être changées au bout de 40 000 à 60 000 kilomètres.

La révision des freins est une étape essentielle : en garantissant l'efficacité du freinage, elle contribue en effet grandement à votre propre sécurité et à celle des autres passagers. Des freins en bon état vous permettront en outre de bénéficier d'un contrôle optimal de votre véhicule.

Si vous constatez une augmentation des distances de freinage, des vibrations inhabituelles, un sifflement aigu ou que vous éprouvez des difficultés à maintenir votre véhicule dans une trajectoire rectiligne au moment du freinage, prenez rapidement contact avec l'un des garagistes Top Garage.

Certains véhicules nécessitent un déverrouillage électrique des étriers. Il est donc indispensable de faire appel à un spécialiste qualifié et équipé d'outils professionnels. Les garagistes adhérents du réseau Top Garage sont formés, équipés et spécialistes du freinage automobile. Sachez qu'en en cas d'incident, l'autoréparation constitue un motif de non-remboursement pour votre assureur.
