Looks like you had fun trip …but we missed you carrying without
spilling the full glass of beer in front pocket of your overalls trick at the Revival this year

Steve, I'm looking forward to re-enact that stunt next year.
How about a Euro Rallye to Goodwood in 2022?
Felt like I already did a tour to get to goodwood this year. My usual 1 hr 15 ish to goodwood took 3 h 20m on Friday because there was a problem on one of the roads. Maybe the climate protestors who were out that day. Lot of people got caught in delay. Needed a beer after that. Not sure why but it was a pain .. in fact it was literally pain in the “leg” … found I was limping around the place maybe from so much stop- start. A coupe of lovely ladies dressed in vintage nurses uniform took a look. Didn’t help medically as they weren’t actually nurses but it helped perk me up when they suggested I remove my trousers
Next day back to the usual 1hr 20; no limp. No nurses

We had a great trip. Less well-known passes than last year, but the roads were for the most part completely empty and at times I felt like I was in a picture from Curves magazine. Absolutely epic driving roads.
Some pictures... here my friend Maarten (in the GTV6) and me on our way to Freiburg in the Alsace:
In Freiburg, we met with Uli and Matthias (Carrera Clubsport) and started with the awesome Schauinsland hillclimb -- no pictures of that because we were too busy driving. Then we made our way to Malbuisson via small and often forested roads:
On Wednesday we drove through amazing scenery on our way to Grenoble, but often there were no suitable places to stop so it was almost impossible to take photos. Here's one of the view when descending down to the city.
Some evening light just before the hotel:
Thursday offered the best scenery with absolutely spectacular roads (again no pictures because the driving took 100% concentration) before we arrived at the top of Combe Laval.
On the road down, the views were amazing.
After Valence, we made a detour to the Ardeche with very twisty narrow roads in a completely different landscape.
We spent Friday driving north via small country roads until it was time to say goodbye to Matthias who headed back to Germany.
Uli and I went on for a little longer until the evening fell.
The next day I drove further north via beautiful French country roads until Belgium, where it was time to hit the highway. It was a wonderful trip and I hope we can do something like this again next year. Thanks Uli for planning the routes and organizing everything!

It seems that you had a great trip
Is the red 3.2 a real ClubSport?
