Just thought I would give an update for all the UK riders going to the Euro Rally in Lake Iseo.

Day 1:

Euro Tunnell to Colmar in France 385 miles overnight stop in Formula 1. We need to think about pre-booking the rooms next month or it might get booked up in July We should also be meeting up with another Bonneville America member from Germany

Day 2:

Colmar to Lake Iseo, 302 miles via Switzerland. We will need to go thro' Swiss border controls & purchase a Road tax vignette to use their motorways. They are also red hot on Speeding & the spot fines are steep

Usual original paperwork required:

V5, Insurance certificate, Passport & a European Heath Insurance Card, if you have one. Oh & plenty of money to buy the leader lots of beer

Only 9 weeks to go


Martyn If you have to ask why I ride, you wouldn't understand the answer!

Jackie doesn't drink that much (whereas her husband can't drink much)

I resent that based on power to weight ratio I can drink the same as a British door mouse anyway it's quality not quantity that counts

Ok on a serious note I will be contacting the Formula 1 motel in the next couple of weeks & I will see about reserving some rooms. Can you let me know who wants their own room & who wants to share... I will also check if they need prepayment.

Well I checked with the website & you need to go online & book it yourself. You can get a room that sleeps 3 adults for 34 euros & breakfast is an extra 3.90 euros per person. If you get a room on your own it is 34 euros or if 3 of you share it is still 34 euros I have booked mine online & they do not take the money untill you check in.

Go to: https://secure.hotelformule1.com

Chose the Formula 1 in Colmar France & go thro each step & you will get a booking reference number & then it is all sorted. Date will be Thursday 31st July 2008 Let me know when you have booked

Yep, that's the right one, don't forget that you can crash at our house the night before the crossing if you want mate.
