Nope it's an off road hill climb. The track goes to the top of the mountain and they give a certificate if you get to a certain point. Nice bit of off roading in the Alps. I'd go if I could get the time off.

Well, just let me know if your coming. Always handy to have someone help pick the Girly up :P

There are a few I know planning on attending so no shortage of beer drinking and tales to join in on.

And making me snigger, Mk4 Escort indeed! Apparently one of the worst cars going, the Swedes do crash tests on secondhand cars it scored the worst, the sills rot and in a side impact they just pull away at the ends and the floor crumples :shock:

You know, whenever I've ridden in the company of BMW 1150GSs I found their natural position was on their side.

Post by: BigMark on March 15, 2011, 09:44:38 AM

The Natural position for my Tiger off road is on it's side but let's not have a minor thing like that spoil the day :lol:

It's gonna be a lonely trip if none of you geezers come... I promise to help pick up your bikes, and buy beer! :P

I would love to come but it won't be this year as we're in the process of relocating. :? :cry: :shock: :lol:

And before anyone pipes up about me being the least likely to survive a trip like that let me say the place where we think we're moving to (assuming the engineering survey goes ok) has a dirt circuit about 3 miles away where you can go play. Means I'll have to buy a dirt bike to brush up on my skills before graduating to the Girly on it but it's a plan of sorts. If everything pans out I might even host a dirt ride weekend once we settle in.

Down side is this property needs a lot of work to get it up to scratch so riding time will be curtailed to start with anyway. :roll:
