gumball cannenball modball etc

have any of you guys done an event like these?

i did the modball last year (gumball for modified cars) 11 countries in 8 days it was amazing,


also how many of you would like to drive to some of the greatest driving roads all in one holiday?

 

I woke one morning and was bored so jumped in the car and went for a drive i ended up in Belgium (nice place) turned around and drove back, does that count?

 

i spose it does,

i got bored and drove to liverpool once (not such a nice place) but my random drives don't usually involve a passport lol

 

Was there a nice warm pie waiting for you when you got back?

 

LOL no Collette came with me, we done a bit of shopping at the hypermarkets in Calais.

 

Did something similar. Mate and i were working out what we were going to do for the weekend. So ended up taking the Ferrari to Bruges for a night and Lille for a night !

 

Sounds good mate, i did not sample the nightlife though

 

We didn't really in Bruges. Went into a pub and decided to try and go through every Belgium Beer they had, starting with the weakest. Ended up in a right state a couple of hours later and it was about 8.30pm. Made hard work of finding the hotel again. I remember the last beer being a special version of something called 'bush' that was close on 15% and like drinking syrup !!!

 

I like the sound of that but not the hangover the next day

 

That sounds fun.

 

I tried to drive one of the greatest roads... I went speicifically to drive the Stelvio, but due to a good skiing season the dammed thing was closed for avalanche risk and repair reasons.

So I had a 3 day mini-tour of the Italian Alps and missed out on the objective. Still any holiday in Italy and/or the Alps is worth the trip!

I do it year in year out with the 187 boys heres the 2008 one,

last years was better still, Route Napoleon, Stelvio, Grossglockner Pass, Black Forest, Nurburgring.

This year grimsel pass, sustenpass, Chamonix, epic road from Val DEsere toTurin, Route Napoleon, Pyrenees National Park, Pau race circuit, roads around Pamplona....etc etc

Its what these cars are made for

 

We spent the last night of of Euro driving holiday in Delerium with a friend who lives in Brussels. I've never had such a painful day of driving the morning after! 3 people in a Clio 182 with loud exhaust, all hungover and late for the ferry. We did Brussels to Nottingham almost non-stop except for the ferry and a Burger King at some random services near London!

The previous 7 days of Nurburgring, Alps, Stelvio, San Bernardino, Susten Pass etc etc were all worth it though! 2200 miles in a week
