WE ARE COMING
!!!!
Last minute agreement made among members of our Polish Pagoda SL circle encouraged me to request and happily get on the list to fill the last - I am told - available places in the event.
Our five teams will start this challenging journey in Warsaw, drive through Berlin to Magdeburg through the A2 Motorway (Highway) and then, depending on timing, whether and other circumstances, select probably to continue on country routes directly to Willingen. All together, the event including the trip would take 6- 7 days and 2500 km (approx. 1650 miles).
Coincidentally, we happen to drive 5 280SL, one from 1968, one 1970 (Artur) and three 1971 models (including mine). BTW, I just realized that, if successful in getting safely to Willingen, our contingent will represent about 10% of the entire Pagoda SL Group representation:-)!!!
Needless to say that we are all excited about the forthcoming event, meeting virtual - so far - colleagues, but also quite concerned about potential mishaps during the trip that - both ways - will last longer than the Willingen gathering itself.
Peter and Achim: on behalf of our team, thanks a lot for all the help and patience in accepting our dispersed herd of latecomers and explaining some - otherwise clear - details.
