Made it to Oglii after a cold, wet night on the border - the Porter nearly fell sideways off a mountain on a muddy, snowy road, but we managed to get over it with some spectactular driving on Brad's part. Treated ourselves to a hotel tonight for a shower + warming up.

Having had our day to prep, we rolled into Goodwood only a touch late and lost, stalling three times as we tried to get into the muddy campground. We put up our tents and enjoyed a cold dinner of salad, cheese, and smoked fish. Amy and I gave the rest of the team their present...

We can't get a roof rack for our car. It's already too tall for its tiny base and it would totally flip over at the first pot hole if we made it top heavy. But we simply can't stuff the car any more. So what would you do with your spare tire?Gedi at Halfords in London suggeste...
