So who can lay claim to the largest/best beer mountain then?? Photographic proof required......

This is one I found (its not ours) but i thought the attempt at making a mountain RANGE was GEEEEENNNNIUS!!!

A great effort, this was featured in Autosport the week after. Could be a new objective to get your beer mountain pictured in a national magazine.

wot about ours in 2003?! ;D

We really must try harder, after the first post ours looks... well.... pathetic really.  :(

Scale model of the Alps next year then  ;)

Drinking all that absolute shite beer must have given some of those lads a few sore ring pieces.  Does the term Japanese flag ring a bell?

ours was completely unaided tho(apart from the four tent pegs) and there was only four of us (drinking)

We tried to build a mountain, but Kate kept driving into it with her Trevor.

This was our last effort, with an added bit of Tetleys for colouring

  They make mine look a mite on the small side  :(  but then again it was a solo effort  ;D ;)

 and it's the only one I've seen with a TWATS sticker  ;) :D ;D

Dave mate, look at the picture again, and I think the big bag in the foreground suggests these people went "collecting". Not only does it mark them down as pikeys, it's clearly cheating too.

i agree with andy. they cheated.

which means mine, robs and dans from '03 wins. although skorpio's is a cracking solo effort!

Ours is the only one with a full set of bottle tops too  ;D

It'd be interesting to see a Famous Grouse mountain - Brian?

It was a few year ago, but after 2 pallets of beer, the following pyramid was built. We never got it to a peak unfortuantely but at 5 deep and the bottom row being about 22 - 24 bottles, it was certainly one of the largest...

Does this count as a beer mountain?

You wicked man Steve.  I asked you never to publish that picture!!!   ;)

Here was our attempt this year. We drank everything we bought so perfect planning plus spent the whole day on Friday in Le Mans.

Thanks for Dan taking the picture.

This is our attempt with beer!

BTW the way Micheal is about 7ft tall!!

try try again

give up ......................try later

Thats quite alright... although drinking everything we bought still makes me feel we didn't buy enough!  ::) ;D

I can't help but get stuck into this....

What's the point of building a beer bottle hill?
Sorry but this is pointless.  Is this the reason you travelled to France? To build the biggest pile of rubbish.  To put it bluntly, a big pile of garbage would qualify you as a first class hillbilly, red-neck over here.  NASCAR fans do this, not racing fans. Holy Sheep sh*t!  You'z  boyz ever been ta Dega?
Don't ever make fun of the "Good ole' boy's" again, they have enough sense to pick up their trash.

From my travels in the States, my experience is a lot of the usual Miller / Bud / Pabst / type beers come in cans.

I suppose a Can Mountain is not quite so practical and doesn't look the same when illuminated.

Furthermore, you don't see this kind of thing in the UK for the same reason (although a Theakstons Old Peculiar mountain would be a fine achievement).

I suppose it's one of those LM conundrums.  You drink a load of bottled beer, casually tossing your empties into an untidy pile.
Man the builder and creator of fine buildings and structures decides to make some kind of pyramid from them.  This happens in all of the campsites and is not limited to people of Anglo Saxon extract, the Danes are particularly good at it....

....but then, LEGOLAND is Denmark’s No. 1 tourist attraction.

plus its always very entertaining watchin fellow lemansers 'trying' there hardest not to topple their beer mountain, whilst most of the time being very drunk

If I recall correctly after taking that photo we but all the bottles in boxes and put them in the bin.

Take my advice and relax a bit.... geez

I agree Fax. Furthermore, perhaps you can tell me what's the point of anything? Ever.

The eternal hopelessness of the human condition is a real bummer.

I knew I could start some sh*t with that remark last night.  Morning all.  Actually over here its all about building the biggest campfire (some get a bit out of hand from time to time) Most motor racing campsites over here allow fires so when the race is over and you've gone home everything you brought back stinks of smoke.

I can recognise a call for help from a member of my flock when I hear one.
First of all Andy, get that Smiths CD off now, and don't put it on again. I suspect that maybe you've installed the Dada engine, but it's thrown a cucumber, and you've started to spiral towards that black hole that's full of God and ghosts and truth.
Verily, go forth to Silverstone this weekend and get a little of what you fancy.
Don't drink gin.

Morning Fax, you're up with the larks this lovely day of the Lord.
In fact, I've never seen any signs at LM prohibiting bonfires, mind you, I've never seen any actually encouraging them either, though I think we could be onto something here, and for some reason the phrase 'dental records' has popped uninvited into my head.
I like the idea of returning home smelling like a spud that's been in the fire for for a day or two though. In fact I like the idea of coming home smelling of anything other than what I usually do.
Careful with the paracetamol John...

Morning H,
Ugh!  Could use some paracetamol this morning.  Went to the Reds vs Dodgers game last night and got thoroughly pissed, hence the came home, got on the forum and went into belligerent Fax mode. Hope I didn't offend anyone...just doing my part as the ugly American.  Tired and hungover...

so who's up for creating a mound of empty carling cans on saturday night at silverstone then?

Quiet a few of us ;D, but would prefer Stella tins

Are you and Rick on the campsite?

rick's in the good ol us of a, but i might be camping

See you on the site or the bar then

FEAR THE BEER MOUNTIAN!!

a thank you  ;D

Actually, I came close to starting up by own big ass camp fire at LM this year. At around 3am on Saturday morning, some ass hole decided to start bouncing his bike off the rev limiter, I was giving him another three minutes to stop before I got out my tent and went walking over there with a can of petrol and a lighter, and would have made him an offer I am sure he would have accepted. However he stopped before I could get this far ! Spoil sport.

Rev Limiters.

Have you ever seen the trick with the falme throwing bike ?

Bounce the bike on either very hihg revs or the limiter, then flick the kill switch off and then on again , really quickly, the small amount of juice travels the system and goes bacng in the silencer.

 It can only be done or Carb'd bikes, but looks great. Kills engines though.

Thanks for the guidance Your Enemanence.

You're right, I was a bit down in the hoof yesterday. It was the prospect of a rivetting afternoon in Swindon and another later meeting in Ealing that set the Black Dog on me. So I've given it a bone (fnah) and put it back in the kennel.

Your wrong though about the Dada engine though. It's now fully fitted to the Commer and it's singing like a bird. I've had a polished and ported Stage III head and a high lift cam fitted , all work carried out under 12 months guarantee by the great Dada demigod, Tristan Tzara.

Gin? No way. Was hoping you'd be bringing some Kwak communion wine along.  Any road, it'll be good to catch up with you, if I can run that fast. What time's vespers?
