As was mentioned in an earlier thread, lets do some SH spotting on the road.
When including your details please remember not to include your full reg no.
Mine?
EJ54 is the first bit
Kia Sedona
Heading for Les Menuires.
Give us a toot if you see us, but not between Calais and Reims as I've managed to get Mrs GC to drive that bit while I have some shut eye.
So, who else is going?

Rally training weekend at Sweet Lamb, in preparation for the various rounds I'm doing to place in the All Terrain Rally Challenge, or Big Bike Rally Challenge as it was known last year.
That and I just installed a Rekluse clutch so it'll be good experience getting used to how that works.

Hope you have a good weekend.
I bought a CCM 604 to do the Scatter Rally that eventually got cancelled last Sept, shame that it didn't get better support.
I hope to be able to squeeze enough time in do a couple of rallies this year.

A request. Could those at the tunnel give a clue as to how it is looking in respect of delays or any other foul ups?
At least those following on will then have an idea about whether it will be plain sailing (training?) or otherwise.
SPILLY67, GaryCantley, I'll look out for you!

well I just had a call from relatives going down to my place - crossing tonight. They got to the tunnel an hour before check in for their booked departure but couldn't get anything earlier. He said everything seemed to be flowing OK but there were a lot of busses and lorries. There's not going to be much chance of getting on an earlier train tomorrow.
