Hi All
I'm thinking of going on this next year would anyone else be interested?
Trev.
A heads up about a 5 day trip next May to Mainland Europe.
Currently we have deposits from 16 cars/drivers ( 50% are bringing their partners).
D1= Chunnel and once in France we head down towards Cambrai before a left turn into Belgium and the Ardennes, passing Chimay and then heading across to the Nurburgring. Its a 'looksee' as opposed to a 'doing' - a chance for folks to see the scale and what the fuss is all about!
D2 takes us along the Mosel valleys and then into the top of the Black Forest.......
D3 sees us in the Southern part of the Forest, dipping our toe into Switz at the Rheinfalls before pottering across to Mulhouse in France to see the famous car museum.
D4 takes us through the Vosges Mountains of Alsace to an overnight at Verdun, passing the various ww1 monuments on the way in......
D5 - back to Calais via Reims, arriving back in the UK at 18.30.
This will be the 4th 'official' SKCC Road Trip, with a range of different 'kits' including a fair few Tigers, last trip Kenjohn one of the Northern Tiger owners took the plunge and joined us for the UK 5 dayer and enjoyed it so much that his name went straight down as a definite for next years!
We cover between 210-250 miles a day, broken down into bite sized chunks - all the drivers are sent a suggested route which wherever possible follows the smaller & more interesting roads, if they choose they can lop of a few miles by amending these slightly to allow for more time at a particular stop off. The Group tends to split according to interest and pace, some wanting to stop more often for photos, others enjoying the twisties - bottom line is that folks drive at their own pace and then hook up at the designated stops ( lunch/coffee/evening)......Often a Group of 20 will fracture into 4-5 smaller groups.
for a 'singleton' the trip will cost £320 - thats Hotel ( own room ) and tunnel included, the rest meals/petrol is down to each individual,......
drop me a note if interested dates are 21st may-25th May - which is the 2nd bank hol in May, meaning that drivers get the Monday to spend with the family......we'll be back in the UK Folkestone at 18.30 on the Sunday.
