Almost there..


Well the end is in sight – everyone is feeling tired and today’s drive was one of the longest of the trip, some 330 miles. The only break in the monotony was the fuel stops!!
But is was worth it to arrive in Reims and the Mumm Champagne house for a private tour and tasting!!! – tough I know but as they had given sponsorship to the event we sort of felt obliged.

It is obvious that we are all tired as more and more teams are leaving the hotels late, driving too fast and picking up fines along the way. The old minis are also more prone to breakdown as they are pushed to the limit – so I think everyone will be pleased to make it to the ferry tomorrow!
