scooter races?

Tomorrow, my scooter racing team and I will leave to Normandy where we will attend a 24 hour scooter race (this time ONLY scooters).

If I don't forget my cameras and tripod and if the weather conditions etc are favorable, i should take again lots of pictures.
This will be my first 24 hour race. Of course, I will only be doing the reporter and supporter and help the more I can. i am not a pilot myself!

Our scooter is ready and faster than ever (not cheating there). I was there when they tried it the first time after all repairs and changes. It reached 110,4 km/hour, which is very good for a scooter.

So far, our pilots managed to finish all 24 hour races they attended, so I am very confident.

Valentino, the mascott bear, is very excited and will be spending his first nights in the tent (two nights).

We will be leaving tomorrow afternoon. while I am writting, Malko and François went to Lacen's home to load the van (François and Lacen are two of the pilots).
There will be two other pilots: Greg, who comes from Martinique each year for the 24 h race, and Stephane. I never met them.

There will be another 6 hour race the 10th of September in Le Mans.

So who wants more live reports about scooter races?

Beary hugs,
Sophie.
