May 19th-26th 2011 - El Gran Premio España! (BOOKING NOW!)

[Cloggy]

Hi guys,

What about meeting up on a Sunday before heading to Spain to have a warming up session + plan a nice route (don't think any of us are interested in non-stop motorways, unless we have to...).

What about: Sunday 15-May, somewhere central
e.g. Athlone, Hodson Bay Hotel http://maps.google.ie/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=53.469044,-7.988391&spn=0.014459,0.038581&t=h&z=15.

Just putting it out there...

Was chattin' with Stevo. We might as well discuss the route on the boat and spend the Sunday with our families...
enjoy + see ya on 'das Boot' aka 'El Barco'

Yep, I discovered that subsequently...haven't opened hotmail in a while

Guys/Gals, to get back on the earlier proposal of attire for the trip, how would a few polo shirts work out?...I have been given a guide price of €11/€12 per unit with an embroidered logo..could probably be cheaper depending on numbers..full range of colours..no one says we have to all wear the same colour. Steve has already sent me the mx5ireland.com logo, so what text should we attach to it? Do we just put "Barcelona 2011" or what? Comments/suggestions please...

BTW, it was gonna be too expensive to have t-shirts screen printed..the numbers would not have been cost effective to make the screens and the transfers can be a bit tacky , at least I think so..that's why I asked for info on polo shirts. None of this is set in stone, feel free to make suggestions, but time is moving on so we'd need to make up our minds soon.

These are the guys I'm talking to, a friend works with them and they're in Kildare

In pink???

BTW John et al .. Steve's the man for the accomodation hunting ... I am clueless with France .. ask me about the USA .. now that's a different story!

This is definitly a joint effort

In pink???

Probably, the colour sheet she gave me doesn't have pink as such, but I'll be talking to her later.


Anyhow, come on guys, are we doing this???
