Hi All challengers
I am still here although I nearly wasn't.(long story but OK now!)
Sorry for not being on here for some time.
I am also looking forward to taking part with Phil C.
It will be good to meet up with some of the old BXAGONEER'S.
And some new faces and Cars.
I think this wil be a very good time for all concerned.
One warning Don't buy Drinking Yoghurt in a low altutude shop and try to open it at the top of a mountain.
Trust me been there and it is not a good outcome.
Looking forward to the adventure.
Regards Kermit.

Hi Kermit,
Good to hear from you and it'll great to have you along again.
My BX passed its MOT today, at no expense save the test fee.
It will be taxed next month to limber up for France, ready for the Alpine Drinking Yoghort Challenge 2012.

Check the route plan there are some suggestions:
9th
Alternative hotel option:
http://www.sanotel.fr
Although this might be out of date because of the recent route alteration dictated by a necessary camping site switch, I suggest having another search online.
10th
Alternative Hotel options:
http://www.hotelscombined.com/Hotel/Hot ... Chanas.htm
http://www.campanile.com/hotel/en/index.aspx
11/12th

14th
