Smiler, I'm in Lörrach, why waste your time going to the 'ring (550km away)when there are superb roads here in the southern Black Forest. Can let you know some; as soon as the weather gets better we can get together and do a few roads around here,
John
sounds good John

as the ring is so close (compaired to living in england) it would be rude of me not to do it

If you guys are up for it I could plan a 1 day hoon starting near here (Lörrach) around 9am, hoon till around 1, have lunch somewhere nice, then hoon to finish around 5 so you can get home before the witches fly....
as soon as the roads are clear (i.e. summer tyres) and the skiers etc are no longer clogging the roads. Looking at April time obviously..

OK, I've a route planned (NO, I'm not telling you!) about 250km with three or four Schwarzwald passes, lots of twisties and small roads, plenty of climbs and drops, some with barriers and some not. I expect it to be around 6 hours plus a stop for lunch somewhere (not yet recce'd)
Starting near the Autobahn A98 exit for Lörrach around 9am on a Saturday and returning with easy access to CH Autobahn...no more than 6 cars methinks? to keep it tidy..
Looking at Saturday April 5th, 12th or 26th weatherwise....Ideas?
One thing to be prepared for, Bikers abound!!!! especially the first sunny days and they can be overadventurous, so expect them in the twisties (I've had some suicidal ones, esp. french, here) over the white lines!
PS I'd make route cards for the non-mapped guys...

the 26th is during the swiss school holidays, so I'd guess the roads will be filled with swiss campervans

Hey Smiler - I saw from an earlier post that you're in ZH - me too, whereabouts are you?
BTW, a hoon on 12.4 could be on provided I get my car sorted before then
I work near the airport, but live near the golf park BTW, a hoon on 12.4 could be on provided I get my car sorted before then

we'll be in the (rattly) MG ZS180, trying to pursuade a friend with a 355 to come along too, but he hasn't woken it up from hibernation yet Abels? Your Quattro still working?
