The 2012 Euro-Rally will take place from Friday 27th July to Monday 30th July, 2012 in Andorra la Vella, the capitol of Andorra.
I apologize for the delay in posting this and hope that I haven't caused too many complications. It's my first attempt to organize a Rally and I want it to be perfect... my folly it would appear!
So - on with the Nitty Gritty.... I have looked into the various camp site ~ all 6 creditable ones that Andorra has ~ and have draw the straw at:
Camping Valira Andorra la Vella AD500 Andorra

Situated just South of the Capitol and at a height of just over 1'000 meters. So bring your woolly blankets!
Here's the GOOGLE Map. Here's the campsite's WebSite.
Camping Prices Adult: € 6.10 Motorbike: € 4.95 And for those who would like to bring their dog(s): € 2.00
There are Bungalows on site, but I hasten to say that there is a strict reservation policy of minimum 1 week reservation in high season! AND ~ booking is from Saturday to Saturday and they are not too cheep either!
Should there be any softies amongst us (me included) then I will be opting for one of the following hotels: Hotel President Hotel Cervol
Naturally I believe that it is only 150 meters away from the site, but only after a recon that will take place in the next months, will I know better. I will get back to you on the exact hotel once I have confirmed which has the best conditions ($$$$$$).
So that's what I have for now. I'll be back in the next weeks for definitive information once I have it.
Let me know if you're interested and what you would opt for ~ camping or hotel ~ so that I can start getting the numbers together.
Until then... Happy planning! 
EDIT And to keep things all together - I thought I'd include this link to the site that I will be doing the online T-shirts! • Bonneville America ~ Spreadshirt
BUT PLEASE - don't be ordering any at the moment! I'll make another post ONCE THE FINAL DESIGN is online!
I'm just finalising the design and I have to wait to get the OK from the legal people... I've already had my hands slapped for using the Triumph Logo!
Thanks for your patience. Lee

Good job Lee - count me in.
Just checked on the Hotel Cervol & it appears to be sold out for that weekend - at least it is through the booking.com website!!

We stayed in Aix le Thermes last year and being lower it was much warner than Andorra la Vella. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wj4KTAoj...TQ7V89LOQn0BVPt

Yeah - I believe it's the booking.com website. They only have a set number of rooms.
I noticed this last year when I did the Thunder To Bled tour with Ivan and a group from the UK. I tried to book the hotels around my area (Germany, Austria and Slovenia) and was told 'full booked'. So then I called/emailed the hotels and they all had rooms, sometimes a euro or two cheaper than booking.com too!
So what I intend to do is wait a little longer - find out how many want hotel rooms +/-, then when I go down there next month or April, I'll hunt out the hotel of best conditions and reserve there and then! Well that's all I think I can do at the moment.
