Je ne parle pas tres bien francais.

 

Last nights sleep was much needed. after starting form london the night before and driving the best part of 24 hours and only a lucky few having an hour’s interupted sleep on the dover-callais ferry, everyone was glad to finally finish the 500km slog to Beaune. Dinner couldnt have been eaten much faster from 8pm and i was fast asleep by 9. Yesterday’s world cup section through some muddy/gravel farm roads were sooooooo much fun. Our skinny tyres are remarkably suited for slippery mud on these little tracks, they cut through and sit on the hard stuff.

 

The long motorway slog was beautiful driving through Champagne valley with long undulating rolling hills on the 4 or 6lane highway. Pity we cant do more driving through france, off to Italy today and driving through a 15 kilometre long tunnel!!!!

 

Must be off.

 

James 🙂

    Long slog for you guys today by the look of things. I spoke to you and your Dad briefly at Brooklands before you set off about your adventure and I must confess as a long time petrolhead I am staggered by the challenge ahead of you! Good luck with your travails, will follow your progress with great interest.

    Spoke with you guys at Brooklands on Sunday and I was staggered then at the ordeal ahead of you! I’ve driven several hundred miles across Europe in a modern saloon on a few occasions and your intrepid approach to the marathon ahead is awesome in the true sense of the word to me. Stay safe and I wish you God speed.
