THE ROAD TO LE MANS 2019

[philw696]

Sounds like Matt swimming the Channel could be a good Charity Fundraiser.

Upon reflection I may buy a jet ski!

 

[Felonious Crud]

Ill swim the fecking channel if I have to!

Could we not just get Garry to drink it?

 

[conaero]

Kempy’s got a boat you could get 8-10 on to shuttle us.

SM d-Day invasion?

OK so decision now made, transport for this years Le Mans will be the Fulvia.

After a few discussions with Brittany Ferries the route is now also confirmed, Tue 11th Portsmouth - Caen overnight and Sun 16th Cherbourg - Poole overnight which will mean we can see the end of the race especially good as we have start / finish line grandstand seats this year.

So hopefully should be able to meet a few of you whilst there.

There's no alcohol in it.

 

[Felonious Crud]

There's no alcohol in it.

Don't tell him that!

Hi. Unfortunately I’m not going to make it and have gone pork. Hopefully someone will benefit from my spot and + 1.

[Spartacus]

We went once . Was n't that intersting . Well apart from the hangover that I had

 

[conaero]

Agreed. I spent the time I've been avoiding eating anything and feeling like death and dodging the toilets.

Its ok but once you've been once...

 

[zagatoes30]

We've been there as above it is worth going to once

 

[Dan!]

I think I went there the first year I went, 7 or 8 years ago... The thing I remember most was the hangover and trying not to **** myself every time I coughed. It appears to be a common theme.

 

[Doohickey]

We go there most years. It's a decent way to start the weekend and there's often some interesting metal there. Get there early though and we tend to leave late morning.

 

[conaero]

It is Doohickey. If your a newbie, trundle on down.

 

[Gazcw]

I will probably go over for a couple of hours in the morning.

 

[FIFTY]

I will probably go over for a couple of hours in the morning.

Good plan... Steve and I are up for attending this

 

[Felonious Crud]

Less than 40 days! 39 for those of us who need to leave on the Monday to attend a 24-race the following weekend.

 

[midlifecrisis]

I hope to do the racers parade in the town centre. I've been to le mans for countless MotoGP and 4 24 hours races but never been to the 'centre ville'...

You're really not entering into the spirit of this, are you..?
