Distances; in perspective

You are all aware that there are some significant distances involved in the rally.

The attached website may well help you put some of those distances into perspective by relating the size of some of the countries we are visiting to the size of the UK.

The link compares the size of the UK to that of Belgium; but you can also make comparisons with other countries.

So, does that mean the bit in Andorra will only be about 20 minutes then ?

The BMW (top speed 185mph) will be in Andorra for about 6mins (inc Customs controls) - the Series IIA guys might take a little longer!

Richie - you have a SC there; so bring some sandwiches. pirat

Never under estimate the Series IIA. We will be about 100 pints 3 months and approx 200 sanwiches behind you. Its a close run thing you know.

Very Happy
