Post by Simon Baxter »

Not that far off.
20 years in France, 25 years in Germany, where do you think 30 years should be?

That would suit me. Lots of offroad routes around Andalucia. No shortage of inclines either. :ok

Smugglers trails over the Pyrenees,

Hosted a customer event their for Jeep owners (real Jeeps :)) back in the day, great terrain, just "wrapping" all the customer cars in vinyl to protect from the bramble scratches was a right pain - especially when it pulled the lacquer of when we removed it :rollin :rollin

you would need a pretty huge off road area for such an event? there´s definately nothing in Denmark that would suffice.

This was just hypothetical by the way, I have nothing to do with with it, I just saw the forum at the top from the 25 year event and thought the next biggie was getting closer.
I'm sure there should be some big hills in Austria right? Would seem to make sense to me to have a trip to Graz seeing as Hanover/Wolfsburg was done last time.

It would seem appropriate; buts the direct route is a long boring drive across Germany. Alpine mountains around Graz are nice though.
