That's APSL... Alps, Passes, Lakes and Spirited driving (Thanks for pointing that out Sean )

The dedicated forum is up and running here

Please post all details, info, chat, pics, etc on there from now on, and use this thread notify of any changes with a BTT or similar.

Go get a bath or something, it's almost your bedtime

 

 

Forum look changed, new logo added

 

Great work mate... posts added...

 

More housekeeping performed.

 

Should any one else be interested in this trip, please see myself, Sticky or Al at the EOM and pay a deposit . . . as I'll be booking the ferries this Friday

 

really want to as said before but can't commit till march after iv worked all of xmas n paid insurance etc, hopefully should get dsome more overtime in to help

 

Will be adding more content to the forum tonight, hopefully

Just shown Simon most of the route, and he's made the very valid point that the Dales, Peaks and Pennines will never be the same again after we've done this. So are we SURE we really want to go?

























Too bleeding right we are


You would not believe the roads that have been sacrificed. If I were to show you some pics of the one's we're NOT doing you'd think I'd gone mad...

...until you see what they're being replaced with

Most (if not all) of the route details will be up there by the end of this evening if all goes to plan. If you're going and you cannot see the Route Details thread please PM me (via the other forum) and I'll sort out your access.

 

Excited?

Moi?




Sticks.... top stuff mate...

 

put some new BIG pics up. Only a couple for now. More to come

 

Those routes look awesome . . . roll on May

 

Updated the list of who's going . . 9 cars and several passengers . . I'll get the ferries booked mid afternoon tomorrow, when I finish work

 

Ferries are now BOOKED

 

The trip has begun!!!!

Right we need T-Shirts and some stickers...

Bit like the Nurbugring one but with a Stelvio looking one with the club and date

 

Now its really starting

 

T-shirts are ongoing

We're having a different coloured one for each day, with the date, and a map of the day's route on the back (For when Al gets lost)

Si's gonna get some prices together, I'll provide the artwork once the routes are finalised.

Do we want nice quality ones that we can wear again in the future, or cheap and cheerful just to get us through the day?

 

Just updated the forum with a post about the shirts

 

Basic route summaries added.

Fuel bill calcualted...

Based on 15 mpg in town / twisties and 25mpg on m/ways and major roads

At £1.10 / litre


cough




£610



So, I've changed my mind.

I don't want to go.

It's ridiculous.

The expense is unjustifiable

I mean, it's not like it's the trip of a lifetime with me mates or owt...




Bring it on!

 

Fooking defo bring it on.....

 

Folks, just been researching some of the mountain passes, and found a bombshell. Check out routes section of the forum

 

Remember, you won't be paying £1.10 a litre in Europe

Actually, just had a looksee and it's up to 96p a litre in France these days Diesel is better at 87p
