Brb, Germany...

At least, after some 5 years, I'm once again Nurburgring bound. It's been FAR too long frankly since the last trip, the Lolf has had to have some welding for it's MOT (first time it's needed welding) and some other niggles, including a concerned call from the garage asking if there was a knack to get it started as it was getting harder to start as the days went on moving it around. Turns out what it needs is fuel (GG there).

The Z4m in the convoy has had a full work over prior and we're currently on the ferry (this will probably be posted later, yay roaming data :( ). France beacons,  Brussels looms like a threat of torment to get round and then it's onwards to Eifel, ze Fatherland in a pair of Bavarian steeds.

Europe Day 3

Today is the first day of the European tour with competition. The tour has taken over a cinema in the town for 10 hours.
Different to the rest of the tour in the UK, this is all played on the retail version of the game.
Setup was pretty straight forward at least, one cable needed replacing but everything else seems fine.
On the side of this is a cosplay competition for everyone to vote on. So far only one person has arrived in costume (harley quinn).

Last night was a bit strange as almost every restaurant in the town was closed. Even the hotel was closed for food, on a Friday night.
Eventually dux and I found somewhere open, Paulaner Wirsthaus. Suitably German and really good food. Stuffed schnitzel for me and goulash for dux.
The decor was interesting too...
