Bonjour everyone,

For my tenth year of visiting Le Mans we are allocated at the campsite AA Vert. Has anyone been there yet? Could'nt find this one in the CA-Guide.

Thanks clubarnage for providing a small group of Dutchmen a lot of usefull info. If needed I can make a coverage for the CA-guide 2009 about campsite AA Vert.

Cheers, Le Bob

I know, i just did'nt wanted to invite myselve without inviting anyone in return. Tough we always have managed to get into each camping we wanted the Dutch way(for free). We enjoyed the start of the race from the tribune at tetre rouge without tickets. But wére planning a footbaal or rugby match. Probably on the friday near parking rouge. So if you wanna sweat out your beer from Thursday........

Tnax for the reaction, bob

I've seen here and there a few announcements of party's being held at Le Mans. Planning to go each and every party there is I would like to ask if those whom are giving a party write down here what, where and how late. And what to bring. (beer, wine, sausages?)

And naturaly everyone is invited to have a beer with us at camping tetre rouge. It's the partytent with the dutch/heineken and checkered flag.

Greetings, Bob

Well, we don't have the tickets yet, just got a letter from the booking office. We orderd at first tetre rouge tickets but were allocated at expo. But now.....tetre rouge. Just wanted to say were very happy with that. We think its the best place to be cause its so close to everything. The track, the pub, other pubs etc etc.

So when you are staying at Tetre Rouge, loom for a dutch flag and a heineken flag tied to a party yent and have a beer with us.

Hi paddy,

(ik probeer het even netjes in het Engels hoor..)
Me and my other Dutch fans just recieved a confirmation we will be allocated at tetre rouge again. This good news got me enthouisiastic again to check at this great site to see what is happening where. What a great innitiative you guys have done. Unfortunatelly our tradition is to go to the fantastic bar Aux portes du Circuit. But we (six idiots from province Utreg) would like to come over and vistit your Friday Night Party. What to do What to do. So much parties so little time. So my question to you is, is it o.k if we come later that evening. Don't know how late and in which state. But no worries, were idiots but fun idiots. Ni stupid party crashers or something like that. That's why I am asking you this soon. Maybe I can come to the gate of the incredible Drinking for Holland place (saw it 2 years ago and could'nt believe what i saw) and ask for Paddy?

Just trying to get in touch with other Dutch Le Mans fans and maybe we can help you guys with info to parties or something too.

Have a great time, I know i will for the nineth time!

Greets, Bob van der Velde. Utrecht

Hi there

We are staying at expo this year. Can you give us an advice how to put up our tents, because its all tarmac. Or do they have enough grass tom put your tent?

Thanx, maybe we'll see each other there.

Very nice to see such pictures. the ones i have are quite simular. i'll see tomorrow if i can find some of "angus". this one reminds me of a very nice ferrari and porche doing a burn-out at the sime time, starting next to each other going opposite ways.

seeing the waterguns it makes me think. its nice to spray on the tires but how about the open cars. they spray them too. even saw short stupid fight because of that. unfortynately not eveyone knows how to behave when surrounded by beer and beautifull cars.

this year whe are staying at camping expo hereby i want to make the bet that i can walk on my hands from my tent to the bar.

greets and looking forward to more nice/funny pics. Bob a.k.a Gijs van Lennep
