The average Englishman - even one who considers himself true English born and bred, not descended from foreigners - has significantly more French genes than Anglo-Saxon.

Before things like the 10CR I always try and get as many miles as possible on the car. My collection of boot spares and tools also expands before getting on a ferry.

I am down for the 10cr but only on reserve list so this would be an excellent way to get a run in. Regards, Dennis ( Trixie) Turner 👍 All details will be put both on here and on CT Facebook when the arrangements are made, so anyone who is interested can add their names to the tour list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

65redspit Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 I’d be up for it - I used to have a place on the Route des Grande Alpes just south of Thonon les Bains, so if you want a hand with the northern part of the route (eg sections of the Morzine Mount Blanc Historique) I’d be happy to give some input… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
