Gordon Bennett - I've got to go !
|
Just had a proper look at the Charade race circuit web site. Looks a
brilliant track. Got to go in July even if I can't get track cover for
the Voxan.
The Gordon Bennett Cup centenary was held there last year.

Aiee! Corner f looks like it should be very similar to
Westwood's run from Deer's Leap down around the hairpin and starting
back up to the esses. That corner looks less of a hairpin on the photo
than on the map, though, more a Melbourne Loop.

How do you fancy this for a hill climb?

Mother of god, read this!!

Fortunately the Voxan's brakes are superb.
There was a nasty hairpin at the bottom of a hill at Mas du Clos last
year. Not such a long run down to it though.

So big and sort of round .....
Like an inverted Puy de Dome - but I think only pedal power is allowed
there.
|
When I was at P de D about 10 years ago I rode to the top (well, had to
walk the last few metres). Cars users had to park at the bottom and get a
bus. It was great fun. Things might have changed since.

Your tyres wouldn't be much good for anywhere else after a few runs up
that!
