You may or may not know that I am going on the Coyote Rally with a few of my mates on April 3rd - 7th 2008. In a nutshell it's a banger rally around Europe consisting of approximately 1500 miles, with stops at Paris, Munich, Prague and Amsterdam.
It seems appropriate to keep everyone updated on how things progress one way or another. I figure a blog on this site seems most appropriate!
First things first - who's going? Well so far, we have me, Dan and Ian. We have a maybe for the fourth, but not definite yet! (And I don't have a clue who he is anyway) :)
The other thing you might wonder - what are we doing it in? Well - I bought a Rover 620 on ebay the other week, for the princely sum of ?133! Well under the ?500 limit ... so long as nothing goes wrong with it!
I'll have you some pictures as soon as I get ahold of it.
Now on the agenda are a few other minor matters, like where do we stay, what route do we take, what insurance do we need to fix up, how do we decorate the car, how much booze do we drink.. etc etc. One thing at a time methinks!
