Hi

Must admit the entrance fee seems to be a bit of a turn off @ £100 or £1000 non sponsored :cry:

The entrance fee, we have attempted to keep as low as possible. Its just question of covering overheads. Its a great event and it would be fantastic to see as many people as possible.

Hey Brett, thanks for the invite. I already looked into this, but unfortunately the ferry from UK to Stavanger was permanently cancelled just at the end of 2008. So, there's no sensible way to take a battery EV there.

I will go by hybrid (not plug in!)

@EVan

I am looking into how best this could be overcome. I'm asking my Norwegian colleagues about this issue and I'll keep you posted with their response.

However the start is at Oslo. Looking at routes

Is there nothing on the route plan that would be suitable

What vehicle are you thinking of?

Best,

Brett
