Reporting this from the dinner table having just finished the final 3ma13 dinner which means 3ma13 is officially over. Now it's time for exchanging pictures and having a social evening before we all set off for home tomorrow; a long trip for some of us. Everyone here joins me in saying a huge thank you to Ingrid and Robert for their superb organisation of 3ma13 and for putting in so much effort to make sure everything was just perfect for us to enjoy.

One of ...if not the best 3MA from an organisational perspective.

While the weather was out of our control, it was obvious from the start to finish that a lot of thought and preparation went into this year's event. Big thanks to Robert and Ingrid...

Next year will be in Italy some time in May and don't forget about the special 40th anniversary Malin to Mizen Mirafiori event in Ireland in September. It looks like there is a lot of interest in this from the attendees in Bavaria.

Simon and myself happy at the chance to spend more money at the fuel station.

All 3MA2013 participants are on their way home now, carrying a trunk full of memories (hopefully) and looking forward to 2014  

We (Ingrid and Robert) sincerely hope you had as much fun participating in this year's event as we had in organizing it! I was particularly happy with organizing saturday's Special Stage   and the prize giving ceremony in the evening. Again my special congratulations to our Oberland Trophy Champion, Ernst Knauber with his navigator Jan, Norbert and his navigator Heini who finished 2nd overall, and last but not least my good friend Simon who brought the first cup back to England since 1966 by finishing 3rd overall (doing it all by himself, without a navigator!!). Not to forget all other teams or single drivers who had much fun finding their way and the route controls on narrow single-lane "roads" and mastering two time controls expertly. See some pictures from the Special Stage:











And here are some more pictures from the prize giving ceremony, showing the winners and their prizes:

The cups waiting for the three winners:

Looks like you all had a fantastic time, and up until a fortnight ago I was planning to come as a passenger . Even had the Easy Jet flights from Manchester to Munich earmarked.

However, with work commitments and the fact that we are off to Frejus in the South of France (Driving) for 2 and a half weeks on the 25th of May meant that something had to give .

Unfortunately it was 3MA.

Hopefully next year .
