At
my Rallye's first public appearance in its' current
form, at the 2006 French Car Show, I announced
a bold plan. Thanks to the DSA's refusal to allow
me to take my driving test in the Rallye, despite
having modified it specially to accommodate my
giant frame, my intention to drive from Land's
End to John o' Groats without using the Motorway
and over some of Britain's best roads, was cemented.
In the company of friends from the 106 Rallye
Register, the journey will take place this spring.
