At least it should be easy to dip the lights to the correct side of the road as they bounce around randomly anyway

For those going, there will be a T-Shirt available.

I need to know numbers and sizes, please... It'll cost £18.

Sizes will be available to fit anyone from Ben/Bruce to Andy/John L (that's M to XXL)

Oh, and this is what it'll look like...

Hi everyone,

I'm from the UK S2000 club and we are also organising a trip down to Millau around the same time that you are.
I've been in contact with Bruce, but due to our timetables it appears that we probably wont be able to meet up with the English contingent, but am hoping to maybe organise a meet with the French atomists where possible (just waiting on a reply from Monza to see if anything is on the cards)

For those of you who are interested here is the thread from the S2000 forum click here.

So if you spot a bunch of S2Ks when you come hooning past at warp factor 3, that'll probably be us  ;D

Have a great trip and maybe see you at the bridge.

On the tool kit front guys - don't forget lots of big cable ties, I've lost count of the times these things have got me home.

Hope you all have a great time!

Cheers, Ross.

I would love to John, I think it will be a fantastic hoon and look forward to seeing the pictures and any other coverage. But I'm gonna use a seldom used phrase on this forum - I can't afford it! :(

I hope you guys have great fun. Maybe someone could fly a kite with a camera fixed to it :)
