Well, I guess Mother Nature isn't going to be nice this time. According to the weather channel here it will be nice and Rainy all weekend starting today.

Should still make for a good day though.

My car has been in the shop for the last three days. They can't get the upgrade to work. If it doesn't make it out this evening, you'll be one short. So, if I'm not there then you know why.

OK, Kris mentioned it...


When you guys are coming on A% from the south slow down at the Autobahnkreuz DARMSTADT! NO SPEEDING there, that's one of the points they have radar traps very often!
Between Darmstadt and Frankfurt there is no speedlimit and the Autobahn has four lanes in each direction, but currently there are two construction sites, so you have to slow down for that.

And for everyone:

When leaving Oberursel, driving on the curvy mountain road up the hill to the meeting point (8Km's), don't speed there as well. For two reasons: Sometimes, usually NOT on weekends, the police sets up a radar trap, but as I said, usually NOT on weekends... And the main reason is, if you don't know the road, it can be dangerous to speed, since some of the curves are really "nice"...

Just enjoy it and don't race! I really want to meet everyone at the meeting point...


Have a safe drive and enjoy it!


See you all up there! Name:  00000650.gif
