DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Beaky,

I'll check your ride at Jazz then. I'm going to see Steve on Saturday to pick up mine.
If you see a red 911T, that's will be me!

Cheers,

Christophe

Christophe,

Change of plan, will be going to Jazz Saturday morning, so might see you there

Regards

Just so we know what to look out for

Ever watch 'condorman' as a kid?

My first dream 911 was a black 3.2, all because of this film!

Should be picking it up from Jazz tomorrow, (annual service & MOT) nothing major to report thank God, a few minor fixes and a new pre silencer...Steve is the business

So we are good to go.......30 days and counting

Just laid out the timing for our trip; Early start Thursday should wake the neighbours!

The timing for Sunday / Monday is pointing me to stopping in Rouen Sunday night, rather than at the circuit. If we stay at Le Mans Sunday night we will be packing a tent at 5:00am to meet the tunnel! Can't see me doing this.

Done a very quick dig on the net and this place seems to meet the spec for reasonable money. Centre of town, private parking. Twin room is 76 euro. I've booked for Sunday night, anyone else interested?

Finally they came back and told me that place was full!!

So we have now booked here:

Hi Gary I have just booked a couple of rooms for me and Mike (Phil's plans have changed) for both the Wednesday and also the Sunday night in Rouen. We are staying at an Ibis hotel which also has secure parking. So we have a convoy of at least three cars for Sunday/Monday

Good news! Unfortunately this is the other side of the city centre My friend (and footy fan!) friend Glenn will be watching the world cup final with beer in hand in a hotel, so we will be leaving before the last race session to keep him sweet

Convoy to the tunnel in the morning though!

good old glenn hope we dont get france in the final then you know what the french are like

Just some news for you guys who are going via the tunnel.

The A28 section from Rouen to Alencon is finally open (you'll seee why it took so many years to build when you cross the two huge viaducts that were involved).
This makes the journey so much quicker and less stressful - we did Le Mans to Boulogne yesterday in just 3 and a half hours, including one stop for fuel...
I am still deciding if it was the right decision to take the Portsmouth - Caen route... for the Classic

Thanks for that, I need to get an up to date altas and plot a route. Multimap doesn't show this section as open.

For routes in France you are best using Via Michelin

We have enough time though to go the scenic route
