One day to go and it's really getting nerve-wracking now. Paperwork is all together, washing is all done and I have a boot full of equipment...

So, the trusty steed: A Skoda Fabia vRS 1.9TDi circa 2004, originally 130bhp but remapped by REVO to near 170. Suspension is Eibach springs and Koni FSD's and there are a few other tweaks here and there. Forgive the arty Black and White shot but it had to be done...

I'm fully loaded with equipment too: A Garmin nuvi760, iPod and EeePC plus a Nikon D80 with 18-200mm VR and an ATC3K minicam.

Gotta have toys!

Add to all that a glovebox full of energy bars and caffiene pills. Right, time to (quite literally) get packing...

Oh yes, the route we're taking:
