OK guys and gals, I need your guidance.
Every year I take one week to do whatever I like, sans wife, kids and all distractions.
Its usually automotive - Le mans, Goodwood FoS or such like, but this year I have not booked
anything cos I simply can't think of anything that floats my boat right now.
F1? nah. Le mans again? Probably not.

So the siuation is this. I have one V8 TVR, fuelled and primed for travel anywhere in Europe.
I have one week to have a blast. Anytime except late July to mid August

What does the collective think I should do?

Andy

Visit the RN85, Monaco, Verdon gorges, and Millau bridge.

I might be doing similar in the Caterham in September...

Forget the car this year, and get yourself over to the Isle of Man in June for the TT races.......

We are going to the Le Mans Classic then heading south to drive some mountain passes and see the sights. 340R + 'luggage' for 10 days = ha ha ha ha...

Why not just get a ferry ticket & see where the mood takes you?

Nurburgring, Provence, Southern Spain, Italy, etc. Just go for a drive.

Why do you need to "plan" an adventure...just go and have one?

Go on a tour of the UK as if you were on a TV show, planning to meet up with social groups around the country and experience some of the local activities that you dont get else where in the country.
fell walking, hill climbing, abseiling, etc, not car related, but you could drive to each and would be an adventure.
