In my mind, there were a couple bits missing this year, compared to previous years.
No cherry brandy tasting at one of the min point stops.
No ice cream van at the Sunday mid point stop.
Shame about not using the town square as Saturday morning rendez-vous point.
No wine with Sunday lunch
and to me the Truck stop BBQ was more of an experience than the sit dowm meal we had this year.
Otherwise, yet again, it was a terrific event.

Most of those changes had already come into effect last year or earlier.
No wine at lunchtime was however new and a first but may have been at the insistence of the local gendarmerie to give at least a hint of responsibility this year lol
