Hi all, Steve from the Kanterbrau owners club kent here (T-shirts available shortly) I think what is needed to help me get into the LM spirit is a thread with all the transport and anything else you fancy sharing a picture of, that will be gracing this years Le Mans 24. If you are particulary pround of anything you are bringing or just want to show off your motor post a pic here. It does have to making this years trip though! so this is my bike that will be travelling to Le Sarthe for the first time.  obviously i am aware that this thread may get hijacked but lets try and get as many pictures as possible and not deviate too far. Steve ps see you in BN i'll be there from monday pm |

Plan A was to stuff all the gear into a Vectra estate and haul the bike down on a trailer. Had to revert to plan B of riding the bike down all the way as the tow car is now history.  BMW R45 1981 One owner 146000 miles. Should be in BN Mon p.m. |

In a word, yes. But it will cruise all day at 80 and the staggering lack of power translates to 20,000 miles on each rear tyre |

This year we are going for all out practicality.....I am commendeering the company Mercedes Vito Van....6 Seats and huuuuuuuuuuuge amounts of space for our kit!!   Apologies for the blatant advertising....Think we'll be easy to spot!!  If I wasn't travelling by public transport I'd bring a John Brash sign to hang off your scaffold! |
