Looking good - at least the tramway work doesn't screw up the Mulsanne or the Chemin de Boeufs. Is there any indication on when the tramway will be in use yet? MG Mark In theory by May - will do a few recces between now and then. I was thinking of arriving on foot on the Wednesday. Will the tram service between the station and the circuit be running by then, do you think? According to the publicity, yes, (hence the "in theory" bit) but I'll keep everybody posted as time goes on. I propose to give the tramway a "dry run" myself once it's open. At any rate, the bus service will run so you won't be entirely stuck whatever happens.

No sign of any UXB's this year then. Or should we start a sweepstake.

Can't imagine anybody will be in LM this weekend (except of course Mr & Mrs Termite), but as part of the local telethon, you can get driven round the Bugatti for 30 euros. That's Sunday sorted then. http://www.lemans.org/sport/sport/actu/2006-11-29_NC_1246_fr.html

I ended up unwittingly contributing to the Telethon in Lille over the weekend. Mrs S purchased sufficient of her laundry products to donate €6, for which we got a "free gift"

Here are 60 odd pictures taken last weekend by Bentley 03 who post on 10/10ths If you have a nervous disposition you should not look. Judging by the amount of trees cut down, maybe we should get 'Sting' to form a charity. http://www.putfile.com/bentley03/images/61231

Some important news for route planning this year http://www.cg72.fr/MediasCG72/pdf/Voir.pdfAppologies for the French. Basically there are now two new payages on the A28 which could be useful for travellers to LM. One is between Fresnay sur Sarthe and Mamers. Not immediately obvious that this is of interest, but it does allow anybody who is in a bit of a hurry, to use the motorway but still do the last 30 miles or so of the old N138 and arrive at LM by the more traditional route. The second is at Parigne l'Eveque which allows a different exit from the motorway on the south side of the city - much more convenient for the circuit and should help the traffic flow considerably. I'll investigate further and try to place these properly for inclusion in the guide. Arnage corner has also been resurfaced.
