GM, could someone verify the specific location for "base camp for the event will be the the city hall of Tinqueux"? I gather that's where everyone will meet on Thursday before departing to tour Centre-ville? Is there a suggested time to arrive there Thursday?
May have missed it, does someone have a mobile number to call or text with questions when we arrive?
Merci

Dear American 928 fans,
To be honest timing is a little fuzzy for me too but dont care, Im 100% confident that everyone will see what they requested.
I traced a French document back saying:
Visit of the cellar on Friday, there is a shuttle bus every 30 minutes that brings you fromTinquex to said cellar.
Same for visit of car museum.
But not a word about a shuttle bus for Thursday
Only that it takes 15 minutes to get to the Cathedral, Tau Palace & St Rmi abbey.
Visit of the Cathedral takes 45 minutes, Tau Palace is 60 minutes and St Rmi abbey also 60 minutes.
Time of departure is up to you, I think!
Do you both stay at Qualys hotel?
thats 1 mile to the
Maison des associations de Tinqueux
Rue de la Croix Cordier
51430 Tinqueux
France
CU there
Regards
Alain

Thanks, just checked the long-range forecast and hoping for a beautiful weekend!
Very much look forward to the trip, making some new friends and seeing those 'neuf vingt-huits'!

OK, so, for various reasons, I was unable to plan and am now surprisingly in a position to go.
But, I will have to arrive by train. Can I still go ahead and register? What do you do, if you don't have a car for the Thursday tour through the Champagne region? Should I just register for Saturday and Sunday, if I don't have a car?

I would love to go, but have to defend my master thesis either on Friday, or the Monday after.
Haven't really received an answer last time I asked, but is it possible to just show up on Sunday for the fair?

So, I signed up for Friday and Saturday night in the hotel and will arrive during the day on Friday. I'll come by train, so if anybody has an extra seat in a 928 for a tourist rally through the vineyards, please PM!
