Brisighella- Border003
Day 8 saw the navigational rally leave their Imola hotel and take in the beautiful roads of the Emilia-Romagna area. First stop was the Castel Del Rio and it's famous Ponte Alidosi. The photo below, or any other I have found can't do the experience of driving over this bridge justice.

Driving across this bridge was damned scary as you couldn't see a thing as you reached the top. Some pictures, that can't do justice to this amazing bridge can be found here

Second checkpoint was in the beautiful town of Brisighella. Famous for it's olive oil Brisighella is surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the country.

The afternoon saw more country roads enroute to the F1 circuit at Imola. A couple of special stages and a buffet lunch and it was time for a few of laps of the circuit, stopping at the Senna memorial during the first.

And that brought the navigational rally to an end. Just time for a final evening of merriment before making our own way back to Calais for the final run to the finish line in London.
