Elefant Rally '06

[guest7]

I was re-reading Boyd's account of that trip and I realised that there were 15 of us camped together at the site, a large number being TC members. What a bloody good effort eh?



Some happy memories:
Smudge and John turning up and doing the absolute minimum to get the tent up and then they slept for 15 hours on uneven snow.
Bill and Simon putting out the fire that could have been life-threatening for me and my brother.
The fireworks on the Saturday night (and the Scots boy's kilts - see below).
Gareth turning up unannounced after riding solo from the UK.
Gary's hangover.
Our snow fireplace and snow toilet (we're sculpters at heart)
Greg's frequent trips up to our part of camp bearing food.
Being accosted, on arrival at a near empty part of the site, by two gruff Germans who instead of mugging me gave me schnapps.



All good fun

As you're about GC, what is the drill for the Tauren Treffen - I know one has to apply for an invite but is that it?

I will PM both of you with the bloke's email address. I think they are very keen on British visitors, the Brits do big mileage to get there and, typically, camp rather than use the B&B option.

I'm sure he wouldn't mind some short emails asking to be considered for invites.

So... you two are planning on a TT raid in '10 are you? 

You'll love it, it's a really nice little friendly rally. And talking of which, I must pen a report for the newsletter.
