Ready for the off...
« on: January 20, 2009, 12:34:31 AM »
I'm mostly packed, my new sidecar outfit is built and I have a small stash of beer money tucked into my jacket pocket.

Tomorrow lunchtime my brother and I leave for an overnighter in Dover, prior to a 6.55am departure (with simon Morgan) for Calais. Then it's off to Austria for the Tauerntreffen (http://motorang.com/tauerntreffen/index_english.htm).

Our snow chains have to be seen to be believed  :o

Wish us luck

In Wurzburg now, had a torrid time of it, but all well and warm after a restorative chinese meal. The last few miles were done in the dark in freezing fog.


Lots of silly incidents, will report back upon return.

Gotta say I initially (from my limited knowledge of German geography) thought you'd strayed a bit off course for the rally going via Wurzburg but I see how your doing it now. I should imagine the scenery is gorgeous in a Christmas card sort of way, but I suppose your concentrating far to much on staying upright for all that "tourist" nonsense. You're doing well folks, I hope your enjoying it. Where's the Stalwart & Jules by the way?

Well we got up the hill one way or another and I have to say that it is indeed a fantastic rally, off to bed now (back in Wurzburg) will report back later

Met up with Jethro and Julian there and they will have their own tales of woe to relate...
