Default 1 more day :-D

And its all go go go for me and 3 friends Off to France to Annecy in the first day. For some reason, my mates wanted to catch the 3.30am train. Ace, 1am wakeup then Planning a loooong lie in tomorrow, then try to grab a few hours after 9-10pm.

Weather looks not so great, rain and sunshine which is a bummer, just hope the roads are dry when we're in the mountains.

Hoping to get down the alps, down to the south coast, then either come back up through France to Germany, or head through northen Italy and Switzerland to Germany. Funds allowing, quick stop at the Ring, and even more fund allowing dependant, up to Assen for the MotoGP... We will see.

Odd on Nelli lasting? Well all recall parts are done now, although I have a tiny tiny leak after replacing the altenator seal (leaking after we done some recall parts ironically, the seal was knackard but it wasn't leaking before we took the damn thing apart, bugger). Hoping it'll be ok. Reckon we will do 2k-3k though so eeekkk.

Will be taking piccies for sure

Do it, seriously. No tent needed, just stop off at campsites with chalets. Between 4 of us it is usually about €20-€30 per night.

Got some roads planned for the way down there after the first day, but fuel wise we're limited to about 110 miles per tank fillup so we will be stopping lots

The rest of the way, who knows
