DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Our Eiffel residence



John leaves a memorable mark in the Pistenklause





Appreciated by all

Following Hendrick et al cross country to Spa



Huge accident just as we were walking in



Being circled overhead with the best view of the track



And you get to see (for me at least) one of the greatest circuits in the world

With some v tasty machinery



The unique way of filling up at Spa

Sunday; very early birds – at the track for just after 8am – despite questioning whether I could ever eat a Yorkie bar again after the night before briefing



Petric and Bootsy had our 6 covered – thanks chaps



Tracey was calm and pleased we were taking it steady (just a quick clip more to prove to myself that we actually did the Green Hell in the little tub )

We were v fortunate to have the track almost to ourselves – about a dozen cars and only 1 bike on the lap.

This was far too common a sight later in the afternoon – to the point where after 3 track closures in one hour bikes were banned for the rest of the day

And before we knew it we were back in Hull for goodbyes – until the next one



Thanks all

Interestingly that accident was at pretty low speed under the safety car after a previous car had rolled on the way up Eau Rouge.

I bet they got a bit of a telling off from the Clerk for that!

I didn't realise there was a farewell line up!
Sorry guys, I pressed on to Norwich to be with the little fella on his 2nd bday

As has been said, a superb few days

Yep sorry we must have got to the car park first, waited 10 mins and nobody else pitched up. So we tootled off. Sorry we missed saying goodby. Should have been a little more patient.

Kind regards

A great weekend and good to meet a few more of you - really is such a relaxing atmosphere and always full of laughs.

The photo's capture the tour perfectly but unfortunately I don't have any better ones to add.

As has been said already, thanks to James and Brian for all the organisation which made the tour work so well.

Looking forward to another trip next year.

It’s the people that make weekends like this & that’s the great thing about DDK, always a great mix of like minded people enjoying themselves

Myself & Jo had a fantastic time.

Some pics from the car park at spa

Wow, what a trip. Many thanks James and Brian for organising this, best event ever?

I hadn't realised we were meeting up before getting on the boat, sorry guys.

Had to drive straight to work from Hull yesterday, but will post some photos soon.

I'm off to get my ears tested after following Russ through the tunnels on Sunday afternoon on the way to the vineyard

Yes very immature I thought. Not grown up at all!
