You're making good time. You'll have to post pix of the bumper later. Or you could get the 110 to close up right behind you and take a pic as you're going along. Careful though..... Black Betty Tunisia 1 2 3 Power by

Hi Rich
Time is 2044 local, just dropped off the sump guard and pressing on to Algeceres (sp?) – only 420 miles to go…
Pretty much non – stop driving with a few fuel and stops, traffic not too bad until Madrid, no problems with the vehicles apart from RLD’s raised fuel consumption trying to keep up with the rest of us..
AndrewS and Ken had a small-ish RTI on the ferry !
The 110 slid into the back of Kens D3 and damaged his rear bumper!!
Weather’s been crap so far, rain and drizzle in southern France and into Spain – well you know what they say about the rain in spain…
No photo’s worth uploading yet – connection is very slow and expensive, will send some once things get more ‘interesting’
Cheers,

Met the crew a few hours ago in the outskirts of Madrid
They were looking pretty fresh considering the hours their putting on their almost nonstop trip down to Algeciras.
Traded my sumpg guard for some vino (it might help them if, God forbid, one of their ECUs breaks down in Africa
Was really nice to finally put faces on their nicks.
