    Albert mate it has been a while. Funny I wondered if that might be you (seeing the link elsewhere first) between the English accents and what sounded like Italian...

    Cheers

    Yes it was, I think. So old I can't remember for sure. I have signed up at their website but not sure about 2009 - Nancy-Jean is keen though still. Also got an email about the Milano-San Remo event which looks very civilised.

    Keep me posted, could carry bags for you if required.

    Cheers

    Just thinking if you do the MM 2009 perhaps NJ and I can make a holiday of it and drive the chase car for you!

    Have you got a motor in mind?

    Seriously Albert.. I had my heart in my throat at that point where you were past the first car in the narrow street and came up to the second one, and where only millimeters away from hitting it. :D daaammn.

    Intense.. Thanks for sharing.. Enjoy it in good health :D

    Thank you for sharing Albert and the only thing missing from that video is that I was not there to enjoy that incredible experience with you in the F40 or a chase/support/friend car. Please share more video with us if/when possible.

    I can only imagine the pain in your hands and feet from trying to slowly drive the F40 thru those streets.

    Power steering and Power brakes are taken for granted at this point.

    I can't imagine driving though something like that in a F40, good thing you had a spotter. Nice mountain shots, a couple of them made me dizzy.
