On the road again...
Okay so I think it is fair to say I have spent some time behind the wheel of late. After successfully tackling the US it was time to take on Europe. After the regatta finished in Holland we needed to get the whole show down to Portugal some 2500km away.

I only had one run in with the Police. The Spanish guardia civilia fined me for having my ipod headset in while driving.... no amount of conversing was going to change the outcome and the 3 of them made it very clear that I would not be allowed to carry on without coming up with the cash...
