Why we decided to go galivanting yet again...
It's fourth time lucky... well, maybe not, as I don't think we're hoping to win. Just have some fun and raise cash for a worthy cause.
Taking a flaky old Skoda back to the Czech Republic seems like the most reasonable thing we can do. Here's how and why we're going to do it.

The preparations
We'd hoped to take a Rover 827, but it wasn't to be, so instead we decided it was time to put a 1997 Skoda Felicia out of our misery. |

The rally, day one
Day one - getting from Calais to Interlaken in Switzerland. It was all about covering ground quickly. |
 |
The rally, day two
Day two - the beautiful Swiss tour... riding our car on its doorhandles. |
 |
The rally, day three
Superman day... for most of them. And a Stelvio starter |
 |
The rally, day four
Heading from Salzburg in Austria, through Bavaria in Germany, to Prague through the Czech countryside... |

Other pictures we couldn't squeeze in. There will be more, no doubt... |
