Our plans for the 2007-2008 Rainforest Challenge European Championship Series

We have 6 excellent venues with local partners lined up for 2007, in 6 European countries, where the events will be run.

Each event will be uniquely challenging in its own way, but the common thread will be a high level of driving ability, adaptability and good vehicle preparation. For our part we will endeavour to make the events entertaining and great fun as well.

RFC Polski TROPHY - Western Poland Our local partners for this event will be G.P.Expeditions run by Artur Drzeweicki, who speaks fluent English and German and has a wealth of off-road experience. The venue will be centred about our own Off-road facility “Godsister” located around 1½ hours drive from the German border.

RFC Français Cinq Piliers CHALLENGE - North-western France Assisting us with this event will be Mudplug Ltd, run By Eric Bowyer-Wilson, who helped us run this event last year. This year, however, the whole event will be held on site, with wild camping the order of the day.

RFC Irish CHALLENGE - Southern Ireland Our local partners for this event will be Ireland Xtreme Ltd, Mike Bassett will be providing us with thousands of hectares of the wildest terrain to run the event, marshals and the very best in the now legendary “Irish hospitality”.

RFC Dansk CHALLENGE - Jutland Denmark Our local partners for this event will be Team Bertelsen ApS, Per, who most of you already know already runs a number of tough local Challenge events in Danmark, has some great venues and will be invaluable to Mick in helping to run a memorable and tough event. There may be some other stuff going on if I know the Danes, so hopefully some surprises too.

RFC Nederlands CHALLENGE - North-eastern Holland For this event we will be using two sites located around Hoogeveen in the northern part of Holland close to the German border.

RFC Italia TROPHY - Northern Italy Details TBA.

We have yet to arrange dates for these events, but Mick and I will endeavor to tour of these countries to ensure that we make the series truly international, both in terms of competitors as well as the venues.
