    The route was somewhat expected... let the planning begin.

    Pity the power stage is the same as last year...

    the stage was nice of course but i think they should have gone for something different for the power stage.

    pic from thiva (2km mark)

    pics from power stage ( 1 km from finish..give or take)

    basically those were just the 2 places that offered some action for me in 2011 due to problems i could not go through the stages before the event as i usually do so the rest of the places i visited were the ones suggested by the guide and they SUCK !!! if you have some standards of course, if you visit events just for the sake of it then they are fine....

    the rally was legendary back then...

    but in Greece the only thing that matters is the pigdogs of Athens to get fatter and fatter so they changed the location of the event since 2005...

    The rally after 2005 became a shadow of its past self...
