The auto's seem rather attractive for some heavy right foot progress

But then I got to thinking there must be some glorious scenery one can take advantage of even in France hehe

Any suggestions for a take-it-all-in type of route that will do everything?
Not ventured so far in to Europe since Le Mans June 1944

Anyone?

Once you reach said destination, please park outside the Pcensoredche factory and piss all over their doorstep.

Then find a local beirhaus, down a few swifties, go back and have one for me...

While you're in the Stuttgart area the Mercedes museum is worth a visit (even if you aren't into mercedes the building, the exhibits and the engineering accomplishments will make you wonder how the hell we won the war. About 40 minutes north of Stuttgart is the biggest boys toy store in the world.The Auto and Tecnhnik museum at Sinsheim. They have a Concorde on the roof and a Topolev 144 (russian version Concordski) both of which you can go in. There are cars , planes and Military hardware everywhere, a large display of F1 cars, massive railway locomotives, motorcycles and a 3D imax cinema. All the exhibits are top quality and costs less to get in than it costs to park at the NEC. If that doesn't float your boat about 20kms away is a sister museum with german U boats, a Jumbo jet on the roof the list goes on. Totally incredible place. sTeVeR

Sounds like a lot of fun Phil, 'fraid I can't make it though. Have to watch the pennies over the next few months, that nice Mr Brown has requested a rather large wad to be paid to him and his cronies in June.

Still nice to know it's being spent wisely mad furious

Catch you soon mate,

Derek
