Well I finally made it to the holy grail of motoring - the Ring . Due to a cancellation by one of the passengers traveling with the Alex Jupe group of cars I was lucky enough to crack an invite; all I had to do was get a Schengen visa for four days . Now being SA passport holder in Uk this is a nightmare but after three days at visa office and two weeks of deliberation I got it . ( SA passport really sucks !! )
Plan was to leave at sparrows Saturday morning, travel from Bosham to Dover, catch ferry then head directly to the Ring via France and Belgium, spend two full days at Ring and head back on the Monday. Well all went superbly according to plan.
Our touring group consisted of all ex Alfa owners but some had sadly taken a step backwards to bring a Cayenne Turbo, Subaru WRX , BMW 325 and BMW2002 to join the real RING contender of Alex's personal Alfa GTV 6 3.5litre 12v .
