Brummiestormer Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I drove all the way down to Chamonix in one day--then relaxed and did 8 countries in 2 weeks Stelvio was good but Furka was really good too---will be doing the Ring and into the Czech Republic to Carlsbad where they filmed Casino Royale--so that's a nice trip in June for me Quote
Stutopia Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 With Italy creeping into this, is Modena going to feature? http://museo.ferrari.com/factory-and-fiorano-track-tour/ http://www.lamborghini.com/en/museum/overview/ I'm sure someone said Pagani isn't far away either... Quote

It's not something i'd say no too If people did decide to join me on this trip, I think the best bits would be the drive to Bormio. Then we'd be there for say 5 day's, And everyone can do what they like on each of those days etc. Quote

StevoD Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 so how much for the likes of everything bar fuel in total? Quote
Grundy Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 so how much for the likes of everything bar fuel in total? For 2 weeks - I'd say £2000 to cover everything, Food, Accom, Fuel. - So about £800-£1200 without fuel, depending on What you buy, hotel prices may vary closer to the time, and what you get up to in Bormio, as there are options for skiing - £2500 and you wouldn't need to worry about running out.

Richy Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Just to say I went skiing in Bormio years ago, and it is a lovely town. I would have been interested in returning, but unfortunately I have developed over the years a dreadful fear of heights, and just looking at the roads brings me out in a cold sweat. Quote
Wendy Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 I too could be interested in this. I agree with a comment made limiting mileage to 250 per day, as it can just become a chore otherwise. I have planned several road trips before and it has worked well with a few hours a day of travel, allows time for sightseeing on route, proper lunches etc. 1 Quote
davedutch Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 I too could be up for this, 2015 gives plenty of planning time, totally agree with limit on drive time, perhaps a day less in Bormio to spend more days travelling rather than not enjoy trip. I drove to the Dordogne earlier this year from the tunnel in one day then spent the next two days there not wanting to do anything, broke the return leg up with an overnight at LeMans. That said, if you are organising, you set the agenda and timetable, it's up to the rest of us to accept your plan and join you or not. I will follow this closely and confirm once your plans are firmer. Good luck Quote

davedutch Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Grundy, just noticed you are going to ace cafe this sat, I will try to catch up with you there. Quote
