Default Where are you?

Sorry if this type of thread has already come around but from reading hundreds of threads I can’t help but wonder where all you current members live. Where are these Vettes being driven.
I’ll start, I’m here in central Wisconsin. Nothing but cows and paper mills and country roads.

I'm in the south east of England. Fortunately, it's the driest part of the UK and of course there are lots of good pubs.

We are in La Sarthe, France, about 45kms south of Le Mans. Beautiful countryside and ideally placed for Le Mans and the many journeys that we undertake throughout France with Corvette Club France.


We moved here in 2004, having been based in Kent, in the south East of England, where I was the local rep for the Classic Corvette Club UK and founder member of the NCRS UK Chapter.

On 5/6/76 I took delivery of my new Vette at Dewey Smith Chevrolet in Omaha NE. Almost 49 years later we're both still here....
