Le Mans 26 Advice (for a beginner)
Discussion
First time poster, long time lurker!
Booked to be at LM24 this summer with some mates and it’s the first trip we’ve done. Booked Beausejour, travel out Thursday, return Monday.
I’ve had a look through lots of the LM camping threads (most of which seem about 10-15 years old and paint a picture of carnage) and overall, it looks promising for a good trip.
Does anyone have any key, sentient advice from experience of trips more recently with camping, any key things to be aware of, anything well worth taking etc. or anything we’ve likely forgotten/overlooked etc?
I’m aware of Strasse’s rather excellent “le-mans-guide” which seems to hold some great details (even if it looks spectacularly early 00s) and I know of Beer Mountain’s guides (though sadly very outdated). Any other guides are welcomed!
Cheers!

In general the whole experience is much more civilised than 15-20 years ago, whether that’s a good or bad thing depends on your point of view!Booked to be at LM24 this summer with some mates and it s the first trip we ve done. Booked Beausejour, travel out Thursday, return Monday.

In my view things went from boisterous and great fun to a bit loutish to boring and too dull over that time, but it all depends on personal experience
