O.K. Roy and the rest of you, we mentioned it off-line, and someone had to start posting on this section.
What about the Baltic Sea Expedition ? Are we up for it, or what ?
You all know, I have rather a lot on right now, but I still fancy this trip later this year if any of you are SERIOUSLY interested.
I recon it will take about ten days solid driving, so allow three weeks to have plenty of time to smell the roses etc.
Basicaly, what I am thinking of is to circumnavigate the Baltic Sea. It will be mainly a road trip, possibly with the odd off-road excursion and camping most of the time. I would suggest a night in a motel / hotel for a bath when necessary, or, in other words when we all begin to smell like a herd of sweaty goats !
According to Auto Route, it's about 4600 miles, so it will be quite a serious undertaking. Spares and maintenance will be a big consideration, but with a number of vehicles, I recon about four or five, backup should not be a serious problem.
Roy, ask Nastia if she has ever been to St Petersburg, it's on the route, but can be by-passed if necessary (visa problems and such). She will obviously be called upon as interpreter, what are her views ?
Come on lets get this show on the road. Give me some feedback.
