Also meant to add about the guys in the convertible cars and pick up trucks late on Sunday night, naked with the blow up dolls!  Have no idea what that was all about but it made us chuckle!!!

There are just so many memories from 4 days away it's impossible to mention them all.

 

We were first timers and OMG where to begin?  

Spending over 4 hours getting to the circuit from Cherbourg (over an hour of that was searching for our campsite, Beausejour!)  Round and round and round Le Mans town

Arriving at the campsite and finding a plot next to some great guys (Team Pigsbladder) and the guys on the other side of us being in the recovery position having competed in a knock out drinking comp with the Danes.

Watching sunrise on Saturday and Sunday morning with a drink still in my hand.  Waking up at 8am and declaring "BEER O'CLOCK"

Being asked the question "so what brings 4 young women to Le Mans?" about a million times from every guy we met.  hmmmm... I wonder... could it be the racing/atmosphere/beer/champagne/ratio of men to women

Watching the start from the start/finish, night racing at Arnage (sorry we didn't make it to the poo bar but we will def make it next year) and finish from a bar in the centre having got completely out of control on Champagne

Packing up on Monday and rocking out of the campsite with the Top Gun sound track "Danger Zone" blurring with my hand on the horn!  All we needed were our Aviator Raybans!

Meeting so many nice people!!!  A big thankyou to all the people we met, the pigsbladder.com guys for your kind hospitality!

Planning the trip for next year with more girlfriends!  

 

We will mostly be listening to

Maroon 5
Matchbox 20
Stereophonics
Lenny Kravitz
Kane
Foo Fighters
Red Hot Chilli Peppers

We will be in an Audi A4 Estate (exciting!!!  ) and has the plate R8K DJ  

Unfortunatley, I am designated driver so will be the only sober one for the journeys...  I think i'm going to have a lot of catching up to do but it's a challenge i'm looking forward too!

 

I have now collected my camping permit for Beausejour (Thanks JPChenet).  I can't believe there is only 3 weeks to go...  It will be our first trip to Le Mans so we're really looking forward to it!

Group name: Piston Broke (because that's what we will be after the weekend   )

Travel plans:  We're travelling on the Friday morning from Portsmouth to Cherbourg and then returning on Monday night!

ETA:  I think we'll be some of the last to arrive, I guess about 5pm ish...

Campsite: Beausejour - Anyone else staying there?

Any plans for open-to-all events/parties:  Not as yet but...

Any advice on where to go and what to see greatly appreciated!!!
