L.L. How frequently are your tours organised?<br />

C.W. That varies, actually. We usually start at the beginning<br />

of May and skip the main holiday period. On the one hand<br />

that’s because a lot of people can’t make it during that time,<br />

and on the other it’s because the country roads are usually<br />

full. And then we keep going from the beginning of August<br />

into October.<br />

L.L. Do you always get the same participants or are the<br />

groups made up of new drivers every time?<br />

C.W. There are many who keep coming back because they<br />

enjoy the personal atmosphere and the adventure of new<br />

regions. And these people keep bringing new people from their<br />

circle of friends and acquaintances. So far, we’ve not had a<br />

single person who went home disappointed after a tour.<br />

“I personally find<br />

pre-war models<br />

particularly<br />

interesting.”<br />

L.L. What kind of audience is attracted by your tours?<br />

C.W. The people are getting younger. Many are in their midforties<br />

and eager to experience a trip like this, but I also met a<br />

23-year-old here in <strong>Lech</strong> who got a TR6 from a junk yard in his<br />

teens which he restored and rebuilt over the course of five<br />

years. He’s into rallies and loves participating with his car.<br />
