Bonsoir ...

I do not worry about languages, my experience tells me that after two beers, one can understand most of the languages of the planet :D . It may sound surprising to those who are highly gratuated in sociology, but it works.
Also my very best friends are English, Dutch, German, Finn and Czech and this helps.

I was just wondering if some frenchies are on LEC, and plan to go to Ypres.

I shall also confirm that Belgium is a very nice country with beautiful places to see and nice roads to drive on.
About beer ... try to find better in the galaxy if you have time !

I informed if it was possible to have an Elan Table for dinner to get a chance to really get to know the LEC international clan :-)
There is no such thing planned, but if the first LEC-er to arrive at the finish (of course it will be an Elan than 'finishes' first for all that matter...) is willing to keep some seats free, we all can have a decent chat over diner! :cheers: :gathering: :clap: :drunk:

Also Dirk informed me that it is possible to group the Elans @ arrival so we have a photo opportunity!


Hope to see you all!

Got my OK from Pascal :) I'm a happy bunny now.

Good and bad news:

The good: A photo opportunity with all the Elans can be organised!
The bad: An Elan Table @ dinner cannot be organised, but is not 'illegal' to reserve one by the first one to arrive!

I picture this: 12 Elan's, waiting for the first Elise to arrive :burnout:

HJ2,
do you mean that we should arrive earlier ?
Or have you something else in mind ?

I agree with Steve A but I would add :clap:

No, The Elan is the fastest point to point lotus, so we'll arrive first nevertheless..... :clap:

If all the elan's could be put together for the run's between stages this could happen :?: :?:

I've probably answered the question myself but; presumably we get all the gumph when we register on the day :?: :?
i.e. it's not sent to use prior to leaving.
