Stelvio 2001 memories

Post by **campbell** » Fri Jul 28, 2006 1:02 am

A few of us over on SE1 have wandered off down memory lane.

Here are some of my very favourites from our archive...

The original Team Scottish Elises assembles at Hillend

Fat Bob Fisics shows us the way to Espana

Paul couldn't find a car wash

"Shepherd to Lost Sheep, Shepherd to Lost Sheep..."

Bonkers in Barcelona

David and Goliath...or..."Road opening June 2015"

Nightfall over Toledo

L to R...Tony (grandfather of Stelvio trips), Robin, Jane, Lisa

Representative behaviour from none other than...

Heading into the Picos...but can you spot the missing car

No Limits

Danger, reservoir, no swimming...but several still did!

Idyllic. Yet txts were arriving telling us that 9/11 had just started happening several thousand miles away...

Homeward bound

Clearly not up to the standard of Chris King's awesome pictorial account (http://www.chris-king.org.uk/Lotus/Stelvio2001/), but good enough to bring back the memories. Happy days.

excellent campbell. I was pestering robin on the recent french frolic trip that SE needs to do another stelvio type trip. I think he is slowly coming around to the idea

Genuis pics!

The front of Tuts car was actually blue at that stage

Another trip like that would be awesome.

Best thing about Chris King's site is this book of tut (somewhat famous)

Can not believe how well that Hotel fitted in with my nickname.

Would be great to go back there again, you really do have to see it to believe it, and as for the whole leg or shoulder of lamb each for dinner.............
