So year 10 of heading to Le Mans.

2 Italian bikes
1 DB9
1 Triumph Stag
1 Nissan pick up with all the ste in

2 Italian bikes missing the ferry
1 Italian bike running out of fuel
1 owner of said Italian bike pouring fuel all over said Italian bike and himself
1 DB9 breaking down terminally (still somewhere in France waiting repatriation!)
1 DB9 replaced with a Renault Megane
1 blow out on the Stag
1 crash by the Stag (driver ok & Stag driveable)
Numerous "getting lost & separated!"
Numerous over heating issues in the Stag
Large impressive 12 man tent leaking like a fecking sieve during the thunderstorm
75% of the party sleeping in their cars due above tent malfunction
25% of the party sleeping in a puddle
1 Stag loosing it's clutch operation
1 Italian bike almost running out of fuel again, only saved by detour off motorway to small village where petrol station was just opening at 8am!
1 owner of above Italian bike loosing credit card from pocket somewhere prior to arriving at the toll booth
1 Stag written off by insurance company

Anyone else have this much fun?

Roll on next year!

WTF? Just how did he crash it safely and driveably that resulted in a write-off?
Simple, 40 year old Stag not worth very much and not economical to repair so insurance company write it off.
