We are driving down on the wednesday from scotland to just outside london before an early shuttle on thurs morning and the great jaunt to le mans itself

last year the little convoy was fun with a great porsche and a couple of tvrs ( lol some of them even came back ! )

My old griff managed to keep up and this year wonder if any others are driving down on the wednesday ???

I'll be heading down on the Tuesday, but I think I'll be sticking the bike in a van to get a bit further south. Riding to Le Mans from Scotland on a Ducati is just asking for trouble!

I'm heading from Aberdeen on the Tues. Catching the Rosyth - Zeebrugge ferry.

Hollowpockets, pop past sometime and we can plan a brisk journey south!

Graeme,

Of course i mean 70. It's just the getting there that'll be brisk. Knowing your driving history and the subtle nature of you car i suspect my super sleuth s4 will be somewhat less noticeable that yours!

Yeah, the street seems a much quieter place! However, i had Milltek's fitted last weekend so have been doing my best to live up to your reputation....can't have the neighbours thinking they've escaped the noisey cars!

See you when you're back.

James
