Dear family and friends,
As we are cruising down the A9 motorway, not too far from Perpignan, I am writing you our 2nd message on Dennis's PDA.
After a worrying clutch-malfunction yesterday, we have tried to solve this by giving the pedal just a little bit more play... Wishfull thinking! It really seems we will be changing the clutch somewhere 'en-route'. For the moment we're still rolling...
As a result of this late-night-venture (...and I must admit, I did need to finish some work) we have left Bligny sur Ouche at almost 11.00am. It's almost 7hrs later now, getting dark and ..ssing with rain. We have received messages of other teams driving through snowstorms near Burgos in the north of Spain...
We will be following the coast-road to Barcelona, might take 5 for a round of Tapas and then continue our estafette-run to Gibraltar and hopefully enjoy some better weather on the coast!
This tiny screen is making me dizzy, more news tomorrow, I'm off. (Ps:PopkhvjMM!)
