Snowbombing 2013 > Roadtrip

the snowbombing road trip
|
It's the most enjoyable way to get to Snowbombing! It's tons more fun than being cooped up on a low cost flight, and you'll remember it for the rest of your life! It's The Road Trip, a colourful, non-competitive musically-motivated drive which sees Snowbombers from all over the UK join a variety of celebrities and music acts. |
Top Gear All The Way
Accelerate your Snowbombing Experience!The eminently enjoyable exodus will rev off from just south of London on Saturday 30th March arriving in resort on Sunday 31st March. All Snowbombers will receive a full set of directions and a bunch of random tasks to complete en route before they head south in a mass exodus across the Channel to Calais... Then onto an overnight refuel with frothy beer and tasty sausages before heading off the next morning for the snow-capped peaks of Austria... Upon arriving in the Alps, all the cars will parade triumphantly right up the Haupt Strasse (high street to you girls) in Mayrhofen, the home of Snowbombing and party capital of the Alps...
The Snowbombing Road Trip can be added as an extra onto your Snowbombing booking here.

Head for the hills...

The Snowbombing Road Trip is NOT a race or a rally! It's more a leisurely European adventure for up to five passengers per car. As any agony aunt will tell you, 'It's not how fast you can do it, it's all about the fun you have doing it'...So think camaraderie rather than competition, we enjoyed the view out of all the windows, not just the front one... After all, you know what they say, 'half the fun is getting there!'

Why you cant miss it...
Its enough to drive you round the bend...literally!The Greatest Show on Snow is proud to reveal that this years Road Trip theme will be...Circus! Taking part in the Road Trip is a once-in-a-lifetime assault on international asphalt. How many people get to take part in an international motoring event? In addition to stretching your Snowbombing experience, it's also a great way to make new friends and take in the sights, sounds and smells of different countries and as a part of travelling circus of celebrities, media and high-octane fun! "This is a great way to get to Snowbombing. Taking part in the Road Trip squeezes in another few days of fun, and unlike a mundane low-cost flight, it will be something people can talk about years later." Gareth Cooper, Snowbombing head honcho ‘The kind people from Snowbombing hooked us up with a sweet motor to kill it across the tarmac of the autobahn and travel in style to the event. We were understandably pretty stoked on this - if you’ve ever driven around in a car that’s as comfy as your living room sofa and has more gadgets to play with than NASA HQ then you’ll know how I felt (cue smug smile).’ Whitelines

The Route and Schedule
For Road Trip first timers, here is a rough guide of what to expect:
Departure Party
Road Trip...Assemble!All the cars meet at around 8.30am on Saturday 30th March at the Road Trip departure point where they are registered. Teams then receive their Road Trip Packs and fill up with goodies for the journey. An Army can’t march on an empty stomach – so we lay on a brekkie for all crews... and an oompha band; the breakfast of champions! For people travelling vast distances to meet at the start point, we advise staying at a local hotel the night before (details announced later). |

The First Leg:
Start Point to DoverHead South down the M20 quicker than a former Page 3 girls prized assets and board the Ferry to Calais (the ferry crossing is all included in your entry fee) – (we've got more empty car parking spaces than the NCP on Xmas Day)! Dover East Ferry Terminal is your first target. Go, Go Go! |

The Second Leg:
|
All aboard...Ferry - Dover to Calais All aboard for a veritable voyage of cross channel cross-dressing and piracy on the poop deck. Snowbombing have their very own private room for the journey...host for a manner of naughty nautical knees ups courtesy of our resident mischief makers! The ferry is a great opportunity to mingle and meet everyone before you hit the third leg. |

The Third Leg:
Calais to LuxembourgThis year NOT only are we bringing the circus with us but using a different route and even visiting a different country...in fact it's the richest country in the World! We've reserved some beds in the Parc Hotel Alvisse - an amazing 4 star hotel in the midst of vineyards in LUXEMBOURG. The hotel is fit for Sebastian Vettel thanks to our motorcade-assisting mates at COORS LIGHT, who will be providing ice-cold complimentary refreshments on arrival, along with Snowbombing's splendid buffet dinner and suitably circus themed after-dinner entertainment for the overnight pit stop; acrobats, jugglers and DJ's. The hotel boasts a pool, gym, breakfast and off-road parking for any SBRT13 participants. This is one roadside crib which will fill up faster than a refuelling, mid-race Formula 1 car, so make sure you book by the 25th JAN by clicking here, or run the risk of missing out on all the fun and having to lay your head somewhere else! Remember to add the Snowbombing code SBRT1 when booking the Road Trip hotel to ensure you dont miss out on any of the action! |

Luxembourg to Mayrhofen

The Final Leg:
Arrival Procession & Awards PartyWe all gather just outside Mayrhofen before arriving at Snowbombing to a huge fanfare and hullabaloo; music plays, flags wave, crowds line the streets and every car is applauded across the finish line. No worries about our chequered histories, we are still shown the chequred flag and are vigorously applauded for our achievements. |

Entertainment & Activities
Life is an open road...This trip sees you burn more rubber than Russell Brand in a fetish club, see more white lines disappear than a rock group touring Bolivia and cross more borders than an on-the-run prisoner. In fact the Road Trip is an event unto-itself and WITH so many slightly unhinged, spirited souls taking part it can be best described as 'Ice Road Truckers' meets 'It's a Knockout'! This is NOT a race or a rally, it's a Road Trip. |

Come join the Circus...
We’ve all wanted to run away and join a circus...well this is your chance!The Greatest Show on Snow can reveal that the theme for the Snowbombing 2013 Roadtrip will be…Circus! This year will witness a gathering of revved-up rodeo of ring (road) masters, cavalcade of clowns, junctions full of jugglers and seat-belted strongmen to participate in some high-wired, high jinks on the highway! In addition to making life-long motorised memories (not to mention new friends), seeing Europe, and receiving a hero’s reception as you triumphantly arrive at Snowbombing, you’ll also be swapping walking the tightrope of the ‘no net’ economy airlines; cramped seats, warm wine and airport tedium, for adventure on the open road, amidst festival-lovin’, fuel-drinking fire-breathers! (...and an overnight pit stop which is not for the squeamish or faint of heart!)
So do the (Billy) Smart thing and drive away and join the SB13 Roadtrip circus!
