Reco for rally 2010 starts today

After 8 weeks of most intensive pre-planning for the selection of stages, their coordination with the Tunisian authorities as well as with German and Austrian embassy, application for the necessary permits (military zones etc.) and organising the referring logistics, today the reconaissance for the GRAND ERG 2010 starts: Departure to Genoa, where we´ll board the ferry to Tunis tomorrow.

What we are packed with:

1439 waypoints for all timed stages as well as service- and rescue-routes
approx. 1800 km of scheduled timed stages
10 vehicles / 20 persons, split up into 3 teams
2 escorts from the Tunisian "garde nationale"
about 400 pages of maps, routes-schedules, roadbook-forms etc. per team
lots of cheerfulness and desire for saaaaaaand!!!

As always the slogan is "good planning is half the job" and therefore we are confident, that our reconaissance will be a total success and we´ll bring back a stuuuuuuunning rallye for you after the next 2 weeks.
