Well looks like we'll be travelling down in the atom

[toms]

Hi all - we're looking good for this!  I have just sent out a group e-mail to those staying at Speed Chills Beausejour, if anyone would like a copy for information purposes just send an e-mail to tomatatomclubdotcom 

[Jamier27]

We'll be on the tetra rouge site.

Never done more than 30 miles on a motorway in the atom so tomorrow's 350mile jaunt is going to be a challenge but at least the forecast is on our side!

Not sure on what routes there are from Cherbourg so will prob just end up following others of the ferry hoping they are heading for Le mans haha

As far as packings concerned how you guys doing it??
We are going to attempt to load car up tonight read for setting off in morning but still not sure what's best way to do it 

Bought a couple of kayak bags but didn't think it through as they are a big fat and short ..  Should have got some longer narrowed ones.

Try and strap as much as you can on the frame with bungee ties e.g tent chairs, umbrella ,waterproof bag goes in the foot well and air beds squashed down the back of the seats . As for a make up bag or a man bag I have no idea.....

[Jamier27]

Well got more than expected in the TVR, and managed to strap holdalls to back of headrests, a few bits under the seats and chairs strapped to sides ...

Few more things to squeeze in in the morning and were good to go!

Just in case someone checks this. We will be at Le Mans and will be at the half Lego Porsche half real car by the Audi totem pole at 9pm on Saturday night if you want to meet up

Hopefully see you on Saturday. Mark

Hope you all enjoyed the trip!

Was good viewing on the TV .. looked like a great event this year ..
.. looking forward to hearing about it and seeing the photos ..

I was over at Maison Blanche (complete with proper skid pan <g>).

Here's the atom parked up... unintentionally on display.

[phil4]

This generated a -lot- passers by to stop, look, inspect, photograph and query.  All day, Sat and Sunday.  I should have either charged for pics, or put up an "info" card (multi-lingual).

These were two typical scenes.... there is an atom there in the middle.

[John Scherrer]

Looks like you towed that caravan Phil 

[phil4]

It could have done with some help

[hiewyj]

The attention drawn by an Atom gets so tiring!!

I bet that getting a hair/lipstick combination to match your car took a while
