Bourne, Lincolnshire (just up the road from Peterborough).

39 on race week Friday (b'day beers gratefully accepted etc....)

Graphic Designer (self-employed since 1993)

First LM was on 17th birthday in 1981 been virtually every year since (only missed 1985 - still too painful to talk about!). Proposed to Mrs Rickmeister as a result of the Jag win in '88, planned kids around the big event (no shagging without welly boots between August and October when we were trying!). Also run a little website that started as a bit of fun helping out on Club Arnage, then went "solo" the following year and it got a little out of hand after that! Obsessed? Maybe just a little!

Le Mans

24

unemployed...
... may wait for any offer, even an expatriation in UK !

only 95,98,99,00 & 01...
... 95 was my only camping experience, at the Indianapolis Curve ( 8) I knew the owners of the house located inner track, and it was before this high fences)
Le Mans is life, anything before and after is just waiting...

... it's not the taking part but the winning that counts !
