Malpaso's PECM 2007, total: 3860kms (2400miles) trip :) Options

[malpaso]

August 25-26, 2007 were days of PECM 2007 in Italy (all of you know http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=51561, http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=39821) . This topic is about all my journey to join this great meeting... enjoy

3860kms: Prague - Lago de Garda - Parma - Pisa - Monaco - St. Tropez - Nimes - Salem - Prague



Highway in CZ and Germany was quick (Germany has no speed limits on highways ) so no pictures from there...

Austria - Italy trip through Alps was more fun :









In this picture my car is 2211km above sea-level


Italy (Lago di Garda lake)...






...and our accomodation


Now PECM part at last (see I really was there )...














yea... there were some more powerful cars than my special model AT202-T ...

...however me was only SS-III replica

After PECM we (CZ group + recycle and _rz_) went from Parma for Pisa (to see Pisa Leaning Tower before it crash down )





...as well to see Italian coast...






...and at last Monaco and Monte Carlo.


Many Porsches, Ferraris (Enzo included), Lamborghinis were around. But... still there is Toyota well known brand


France (Saint Tropez)


France (near Toulon)


France (Nice and Pont du Gard)




At the end just to have some fun during way back we were in crocodile farm and monkey sanctuary...

nice pictures!

though crocodile farm and monkey sanctuary dont sound like a good combination to me

I bet you had tons of fun! I love road trips!

[vsideboy]

nice journey mate.

I've just calculated that we did a 2192mile (3528km) journey (Stevec1603 lives in scotland so he did 600miles (900ish km) more than we did.)

Don't want that kind of journey too often, will need an oil change every few weeks lol!



Blue line was going to Parma, red line was roughly coming home.

if it happens again next year and you're still in the UK then I'm sure you'll be welcome to tag along.

[malpaso]

to cHinaman727: yea you are right. However that crocodile farm and monkey sanctuary are hundreds miles from each other (monkeys are in Salem and crocodiles near Nimes). My fault not explaining it clear

to vsideboy: agree this is not a trip I wish to drive every day however damn nice trip as well

to Borghe: Italy is amazing... Driving there I enjoyed much more than France, Germany or Austria... I want to visit Italy for 100% again!

to m0dd3d1: Go for it! It's amazing there...

to xs94st: is that sarcasm or not?

to Jlacker3: Thank you!

Again thanks for comments folks

[CelicaDriver]

Nice pics..

It was a realy realy great meeting over there and a lot of fun on the racetrack.

[malpaso]

to dtlwrc: I can tell travel through Europe is amazing experience. Every country had different roads and different drivers on it .

to manolis: thanks

to CelicaDriver: Honestly... I'm bit sorry about not using track with my car my self now... Although I have enjoyed track on drivers side I was only passenger . You can see my face how different feeling it is . Next time I must be the one who hold steering wheel on track...

Re, that's not nice of you... you play with words everyones knows about your relationship with cola (of every possible brand )

This picture has been taken few minutes before ride ...and IMO Pepsi also counts. It's member of "coke" family
