2024's rearranged destination rally.....

An interesting start and now only 2 weeks out let's recap on how we've joined the "other" banger rally challenge to Croatia in the 2024 "Split or bust"......

It all started on an almost not rainy day in Leeds, when Mike decided to show me his "new" car... A 2003 mini (very much like his other black mini that has been off the road for a while) that he got because he needed a run around.... But it was cheap and could be used for another rally (potentially) if we could get on one....

So I looked and registration was still open for "Monopoli or Bust" from the Cornwall team that we'd joined before in previous years.

So all excited and with permission from the better halves we signed up.... Only to be informed in August that this year's rally has to be postponed...

Undeterred and another quick look around we found the other half of the original Cornwall team had "Split or bust" organized for the week before "Monopoli or Bust"... So without time to change and stickers already on the car we are now heading to Croatia instead of Italy this year in another fun packed week of driving, camping and general funny business in a very suitable MINI....... With a team name still of "The Italian Job".
