LeMans Bridges / Tunnels
« on: April 09, 2005, 10:29:59 am »
I don't suppose we have anymore info / pictures on the new tunnels that are being installed in replacement for the LeMans.Org bridges by Musee / Houx Annex.

We always camp at the far corner of Musee and I have a horrible feeling that this is where the tunnels have been positioned.

Cheers,

Tony

Thanks Giles.  You're a star.

As I mentioned in my initial post, we camp in the top corner. If you walked over the original bridge (LeMans.Org) most of the people would then turn left to see the track. We turn right at that point and go into the far corner.

Cheers,

Tony

Giles,

Don't suppose you had a chance to wonder up by the Dunlop bridge at the weekend?

Cheers,

Tony

As you have read in another thread, I passed the whole weekend in the paddock with the team...

... outside this area people were really pissed off...

... and I didn't have time to walk to Dunlop or le mans.org bridges !!!

At least the south pedestrian tunnel is a real bonus when you come from Houx.

This is a bit late but try this link http://www.lemans.org/24heuresdumans/live/pages/som_photos.html

Like you, we're concerned about where the digging is going on - We use Chapelle.

Best wishes

Thx. I wayched a bike race last week on TV and noticed that the tunnels have completely destroyed the far end of Musee. I am sure it will be better for the spectators but imo, they have wiped out one of the best kept camping secrets.

Time to look for a new spot ;-( We will proably have to watch more of the race now.
