Night expectations for Atlanta on Thursday 24 Fahrenheit. I like cold more than heat; my record is below -50 Fahrenheit in February along the Alaska Highway. Minus 22 (no wind, clear sky) was considered a nice working day. However, for the Rally my preference goes to the same dates as this...

OK, maybe not YET in your life time (with two sweeps of the polar vortex coming way down this year, who knows, it might come). But you plan for expected comfortable average. This year was a bit too warm for the time of year, next year maybe will be a bit too cold in the October period, but...

Today's average weather in the USA is a good reason NOT to have the Rally in November. On the other hand, it could be fun to watch trucks trying to complete frozen trails or braking through fresh ice ... for about five minutes, and then its back to warmer shelters. I don't like too warm...

Some people asked me about Holland - The Netherlands, and papabear reminded me of the video I once posted on the topic. For those who missed it the first time: have fun, hope you'll understand my background a bit better. Oh, and be happy it is so simple now. Since 1948 we lost the East Dutch...

After reading all the comments and going back over my own ideas, some comments on the rally “as an outsider – newbie”. I will send a letter to the AAR people with more details as well and suggestions for solutions as well (soon). These remarks are not a criticism, just some food for thought and...

maybe somebody mistook an Unimog for a Pinzgauer?

In memorial Tigger I thought this should be in the official thread and the multi-media thread

Actually, I stayed in Florida and flew out of Orlando. Great deal. For those of you interested, try hipmunk for your flight tickets, they managed to find flights which our Czech and German websites did not mention. Flying out of different airports nowadays is not much more expensive than...

I do, but just got home and did not have time to sort pics and post video's. Give me a few days or so.

I talked with the DT people and they mentioned that a new fyber-optics cable is put in the ground to get the lodge a high capacity line. That line crosses more or less over our main area. We should ask DT to either make a branch with router directly on the field or run a thin cable back from the...

Finally made it home Thursday night, completely yet-lagged-out from a great 10 days (two days flying, rally and visiting family and a friend in Florida). Racing around ever since, still half disoriented, the first moment quiet to write something down here. In short: THANKS This was a great...

just a quick one, the compound is filling up nicely. At 10 this morning we were at 71 MVs and 15 trailers, not counting pure civic transport means and hitchhikers.

In case you did not notice it yet INTERNET IS DOWN in Durham Town; they got hit by lightning. Only the lodge has slow internet. Occasionally somebody will come up here or use a cell phone to upload something, but don't be surprised if reactions are slow. Having said that, I arrived safely...

I am in baggage reclaim in domestic. In about 10 minutes a shuttle to augusta leaves that could drop me off at greensboro, would that mAke things easier? I have zour number will call

Did i mention that I have some very good czech stuff with me to drink around the fire tonight?

I actaully mentioned it in a few post that I did not have a clue and was hoping somebody would pass by here around this time. Should have shouted harder. I will move to the domestic terminal and check out shuttle busses. I will see if any of them gets close to greensboro (augusta shuttle)...

So I finally cleared the customs and standing in the arrival area. Anybody passing through atlanta around this time or any idea how to get to durham WITHOUT wheels? Going for a coffee first. Phone number to the GA Mafia would be nice
