Jason Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Now September, October is a tricky time for me with kids birthdays etc so I need to get dates in the diary and start fabricating excuses to miss things etc. Anyone who saw me buying assorted crap in every country will know that I pay dearly for missing a birthday but at least I am allowed to go! Do we have dates set yet or any ideas of approx dates? I know I know, RBRR first but I was bored and started dreaming of the mountains again.

don cook1 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Ahhh....mountains, is it really a year since we hit the Alps? I'm off to Annecy next week so I'll pass on my regards from the 10CR stalwarts to the Alps.How is Ellis getting on with preparations?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I happen to know he is getting on just fine ;)No doubt dates will appear very soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 The 10CR dates will be announced in 4 weeks time and the entry forms will be in the November copy of 'ClubTorque'.Entry will be limited!The best thing about the 10CR is that I will have no organisational involvement. 'Thank god for that' I hear you say!My entry will of course be the Grey Car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 Nice one - when you say "limited" how limited? Or should we wait 4 weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Being a potential entrant rather than the organiser I can heckle from the floor of the house - what luxury :)So, if it's limited surely the 2003 entrants get first refusal or even a guaranteed entry :)I too am looking forward to the 10CR - only last night I met a chap from the 2000 register who has heard of the 10CR and has an ambition to do the Stelvio.Of course, there's only a select few of us "have done the Stelvio" - eh Jason 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Can i send the cheque to ellis now...looks like it's gonna be a two car entry for that as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 Done? Oh yes we done the Stelvio - that was the start of our adventure in Italy really, I look back on it fondly! I NEED to do the Ring too next time - even if I only potter round like a week old kitten!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 This is a bit insane though ,we haven't done this years RBRR and we're allready starting to talk about the 10cr.....should we start a new thread entitled 10cr2007 fever....and can i put my order in for polo shirts now or is it too early and can i have some done with 2005 on as i still haven't got one of those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Bancroft Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Martin,Of course places will not be guaranteed for 2003 10CR people, its a Club Triumph event- places will be sold on a first come first, served basis- I would think.Patience is needed.5 weeks tonight, I hope to be on the A1 near Grantham and starting to think about those Scottish roads.

Tim Bancroft Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Sorry, as you have said before- us Southeners don't have a sense of humour!A bit relaxed at pres., having a few days off CT and RBRR work- gonna spend tomorrow working on the Herald and GT6. Want the GT6 to RBRR ready by a week on Sunday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I presume participation on the 10CR2007 for "organizing committee members"will be garanteed :X ::)Otherwise we'll cancel next wednesday's appointment for negotiating the finish accomodation ;D :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take own car......... And winge like bug*ery that your co-drivers are abusing it and that you do not trust them to take good care of it when climbing the Stelvio......

Jason Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 Ooo - harsh Colin very harsh! It was a good drive up the Stelvio though, that Merc we were chasing was not hanging about. It was interesting that the most abuse the car got was from Carl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 It can't be that limited though, can it? Gotta get my entry in as soon as it opens this time round. can't wait for possibly the quickest tour of Europe again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 You want quick? The first 10CR was quick - absolutely no fannying around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Yes, I deliberately slowed the pace down in planning the 2005 event and we went for the luxury of 2 overnight halts instead of 1 :oStill prefer the 03 event tho ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Well it was quick enough in the '05 event, seemed a crime passing some of the finest places in europe, and driving straight past. I think i might have to take a leaf out of Carruthers book, and stop for some gastronomic delights on the '07 event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 As I am contibuting to the route planning (one section only) I can tell you there will be options for a more lesiurely approach ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
