Hi Keith and all going to Château Grand Gaigné this w/e and need to find there way....

I realize there is a small error in the road instructions to Château Grand Gaigné. Don't take it personal, Keith  ;) ;)
Rue de la gare is not to be used as the rail road track crossing has long been closed.

Coming from Le Mans on "rue du Mans" D304 , we have to take sharp right onto D242 (rue de la Chapelle Saint Fray), cross the rail road over small bridge and immediately turn left into "rue de la Source", keep all the way right until the street plunges through the fields (see attached).

Safe journey and see you latest on Friday. We'll travel to LM on Thursday.

Thank you for drawing my attention to error on route instructions to Chateau Grand Gaigne.

Thankfully error is not far from destination,  Have printed off amendment and will distribute to those staying at Chateau Grand Gaigne.

Drive Safe,  see you Friday 6th July.

The route to the circuit suggests you use the D92 - that number has apparently changed - the D92 is shown west of Paris on Google maps.

You are probably right in mentioning a number change.
D roads are Departmental, so there are plenty of D92s around France.
In Département de la Sarthe, a D92 exists on the South-East side of Le Mans between Ruaudin and Arnage.

Ah - lots of D92s as well as changes!  I wasn't aware of the 'Departmental' class - thanks.

Back from Le Mans late last night... after a fantastic but tiring w/e with 1.600 kms roundtrip, hot weather, lots of sunshine and all one needs to enjoy classic motor racing at its best.

Many thanks to Keith  :) and Andy  :) for having organized the Club's venue. It was good to see good friends back at the Friday night dinner and get to know new faces.

Spent 3 days at the LM track watching race preps, trials and races, Saturday even to late night, with AC Aces and Cobras performing very well.

I'll try to post a few pic later.
