Legal Thrash

[bob944]

If I wanted to go for a legal thrash on a public road I assume German Autobarhn is best and closest.
Assuming going for just a weekend, where would you head for? and how would you take car across channel, boat or train?
Does any organisation provide such a 'scenic tour' for like minded drivers?

Calais ==> Aachen is about 2hrs 45mins

I'm in Düsseldorf, about 45 mins from Aachen. You can get some good deals on Eurotunnel for short trips (up to a few days)

Autobahn for me is about 3 km away

Bob, there are some very very cheap deals to be had on cross channel ferries - a guy i work with is Belgian and goes home most weekends.
He uses one of these two:
www.speedferries.com
or
www.seafrance.com

He usually pays between £50 and £60 for a car weekend return.

I might be tempted to join you if you fancy a dash out to the highways near the 'Ring, and maybe a scenic lap or two, and a drive through the Alps on the way home...

Well, if any of you guys come buy this way - say hello

I'm about 60-90mins from the ring

That's not bad at all. Sounds like a nice round trip Pete, I'll come back to you. Don't you just hate smug b***'s who don't have a 70 limit! Cheers.
