Pistonheads trip to Monaco Historique

[PiloteAM]

Hi pistonheaders!

There's 15 of us on a trip down to Monaco for the Historique GP.

We were supposed to be getting the ferry to Santander, then driving to San Sebastián, but there was a slight disaster when the ferry broke down the day before!

Instead we took the Eurotunnel, and stayed overnight in the Loire valley, then drove the rest of the way into Spain. Found a great Chateau hotel by chance, Château De Brou in Noyant de Touraine.

We're currently staying in Villa Soro just outside San Sebastián, having had lunch at Martin Berasategui today. Fantastic food, and an excellent wine list, which we did a lot of damage to

Not much chance for hoonage yet, mostly been motorway slog down to Spain, but tomorrow we're off to Carcassonne via the Pyrenees, then Nice for the GP, then back home via Lyon and Épernay.

Other people on the trip will post their photos and comments here, and I'll try and update it over the next 5 days.

France has a lot less flies in it now!

Without copying Nick's post, I can only say what an EPIC trip. Brittany Ferries are responsible for 800 miles and 2 days of motorway driving that are best forgotten, but the rest was awesome. It was a team effort and no one person did more or less to make the trip as good as it was.

Let's do it all again in 2 years, with less motorway and more hooning

Fine Wine consumption - Staggering

In years to come people will wonder about the wines-beginning-with-M shortage of 2016.

Not only did we empty people's beer fridges, we also emptied quite a few cellar sections.
