I'll try not to slow you lot up too much

[scutter]

I mentioned this trip to a friend of mine at work who has an Audi TT and he only went and joined LOT and booked this trip. He's booked the same crossing times and hotel as us so I hope it's OK if he tags along, at the back of course. I told him you would all be gentle with him.

[The Batman]

audi TT he will have alot to talk about with JJJ

[Mike (Cliffie)]

Can we discuss the Chunnel'ers route to Le Mans? I for one would rather get there as quickly as we can via shortest route which I guess is the Autoroute. I am not so keen on 8+ hours in the saddle even if it is in the best convoy ever assembled. Discuss.

[The Batman]

i am also going the quickest route that tomtom can take me!

[P11 COV]

So we need;
Crossing info for: Dynamo, P11 COV
Hotel info for: Dynamo, P11 COV, Southpaw, LeeVX2.2 and Techie.

I've booked the Hotel (i think - not had confirmation since I had to confirm I was happy with the 60 euros for the monday nite)

Tunnel crossing - i'm waiting for my tesco vouchers to arrive.

Re: Route and distance. I've been down 4 times and I don't remember it taking that long on the auto route - 3 - 4 hours? Whilst the scenic route may be more interesting I couldn't really stomach the length of time it would take.

are peeps are aware (if you haven't been for a few years) that the auto route goes all the way to Le Man now so apart for Rouen its pretty much all motorway. Google says 4 hours.

I am hoping to average speed along at an incredible mile a minute.

[P11 COV]

I am hoping to average speed along at an incredible mile a minute.

Thats 4.38 hours

Does anyone know Heritages current policy on trackday insurance cover? They used to cover LoT days in Europe as long as they were notified of the place/date but I'm not sure now as some changes were made.

Yeah sod it, it's going to be a long old slog for everyone, so quicker the better gets my vote. There will be plenty of fuel stops to keep us occupied if Joe gets his way....

[The Batman]

i am in the middle of sealing the boot so that i will have a slightly larger fuel tank

[Sticky]

Sorting my tunnel vouchers out now. Hotel confirmed. This going to look incredible down the Autoroute

[Sutol]

I mentioned this trip to a friend of mine at work who has an Audi TT and he only went and joined LOT and booked this trip. He's booked the same crossing times and hotel as us so I hope it's OK if he tags along, at the back of course. I told him you would all be gentle with him.

that's absolutely marvellous news, is there any chance he could give me a quick trim when we get to the hotel
