Today the flag drop which marks the start of this years Gumball 3000 and after an amazing night at the W hotel and the launch party, myself and Nicola had four hours of sleep before getting on our skateboards and heading to the Ocean drive. The cars had lined up the night before and were ready to head out so after a coffee and a croissant we went to watch our friends get in their cars and drive off. Next stop: Atlanta.
We almost got persuaded to jump in the car with the Betsafe crew and head on with all the crazy people and we went so far as to start packing our bags and thinking about buying flights but after a cold shower we got some sense kicked back in our heads and decided to get back to Orlando to train. Right now I am pretty happy with our choice as the 4 hours of sleep (and possibly some glasses of champagne) is making my head feel a little bit like a watermelon.
Now we’re getting ready to get back on the water tomorrow with great memories and newfound friends. Next year Betsafe, I want to be driving though 😉
