Anyone traveling down to Le Sarthe from the Worcster area. We leave on wed morn, A Ford Focus, Lexus is300 and Mini Moke in our convoy. Was wondering if anyone else from our way is driving down. One of our group spotted an Alfa stickered up.
Are we alone?

I'm heading down to Ashford on Wednesday afternoon to meet up with the rest of the 'Race?....What Race?' crew for an overnight. We're on the Thursday morning tunnel.

Are you going on the Tunnel?

We'll be leaving Warwick at 5am and heading down to Dover - Transit van, Navara, 207 and TVR Chimaera.

If my mate does them in time, we'll be stickered.

Heading down from Brum area on the 6th to get to Lemons via the tunnel about Wednesday - not too good an average MPH but should be fairly relaxed. Should be visiting a couple of vineyards and calvados distilleries along the way :hic:

Leaving from Hereford via Malvern Tuesday Night at 8pm (Audi A6 Le Mans, VW Passat Sport and Range Rover Sport V8) to catch the half midnight Dieppe ferry. Plan to Get to Tet Rouge before lunch on Wed to set up and prepare! lol

Shame we are leaving so early and to different places, would have been good to get a bit of a convoy going.

I will be leaving Shropshire during Tuesday afternoon for an overnight stopover in Herts before getting the 10.45 Speedferries on Wednesday morning.

Sniff petrol, watch out for the M1 around Luton/Hemel Heampstead area, traffic through the roadworks can be awful. Although you might hit it early enough to be not be too badly affected.
