Offtopic: What size are those wheels and tires? I have a set of 17s of the same type and those looks even more stunning.

9x17, offset 6 front and 11x17, offset 6 rear.
Fronts have a 3" lip and the rears even 4".

Thanks already now to both of you for the great organization. I'm really looking forward to a one of a kind meeting.
The route to Valle I already picked for the way back on Sunday after having traveled quite a while on my PC with the help of google street view. Really a great tool for preparing a trip.

CU in a few days.

Cheers
Wolf

Hello everyone,

We started travelling today well wednesday at 10h30 i picked up Antonin at Roissy Charles de Gaulle where Antonin left his car.
I started driving from 10H50 to 1:30pm up to Liège where we had lunch. Then Antonin drove from 2PM to 6PM after Hannover where we filled the tank and stoped for 20mn. Then i drove from 6:20 to 8:30pm for gas and dinner just about 220kms from Hirtshals. Antonin drove the last 220kms from 9pm to 10:30pm. So we drove unexpectedly 1400kms in about 11H40. Not bad considering we stoped for 1H20mn. On several occasions we hit 250 and a lot above 200. Unfortunatly on several occasions we couldn't drive fast due to work on the road or traffic. Between Hannover and Hamburg there was heavy traffic.
dear 8ers see tomorrow at the ferry for some and at Kristiansand for others or at the Hotel at Stavanger.

Looking forward to see you all , the Swedes are passing Kristiansand approx the same time you are getting of the boat, so mayby you will be coming in a convoy.

And Fabrice remeber that from Kristiansand to Stavanger there will be no where you can hit 250km

Looking more like 60km but relax and have a safe trip.

Regards
Terje

Hi everyone,
Thank you so much Terje and Egil for this wonderful meeting. It is far beyond expectations and for me the best meeting ever i atempded. What a lovely country you have. It is phenomenal... Though i travelled around the world! I just regret i didn't make preikestolen and the great route Wolf and Dave are taking to go back home but i didn't have enough time. Nice to see you boys and girls from norway, sweden, netherlands, germany, denmark and Poland.
Hoping to meet you again.
May the 8 be with you and for always!
Fabrice
