Press Release
Starting in the beautiful town of Beaune there will be a chance
to visit the pretty town centre as our signing on hotel; the
Hostellerie le Cédre is close to all the action. Having
met up at the Welcome Dinner, the clock will start running as
we rally deep into the vineyards of Burgundy, and although the
rally route will visit many villages that can be found on a
wine list, there are plenty of rural lanes to enjoy driving
and navigating through. The maze of roads in this area offer
some exciting rally sections before reaching the lovely Château
de Pizay, and a chance to enjoy the wine made by the château
from the Morgon grapes surrounding it.
|
The routes for the next couple
of days are designed to provide a unique combination of challenging
regularities and non-timed passage sections as the route zigzags
from control to control, but there will be time each afternoon
to socialise with other crews and enjoy this charming area.
The last two days will
see the rally head north to the Celtic and Roman town of Autun.
Hôtel des Ursulines is set overlooking
this vibrant town and has breathtaking views of the surrounding
countryside. This undulating country sets the scene for the
final day’s rallying, which will be testing, but very
satisfying! A prize giving dinner will held in the hotel’s
chapel, which is part of the original monastery, and will conclude
another great adventure in France.
Entries are already being received and full details and entry
forms are available from the rally office.
