Anyone going to Lisbon for the start? Any advice on lodging, etc?

I have the same idea.
If you run across any good info can you pass it on.

Best bet IMHO, sign up for the Paris-Dakar@yahoogroups.com
(I'm not a fan of Yahoo groups, but this is the only Dakar mail group I know of.)

I'm planning to fly down. Lodging is the big unknown. Is tent camping going to be comfortable in Lison in Dec/Jan? I'd at least like to know where the start is going to be so I can try to book a hotel on the right side of town. Not much is available at this point and it may already be too late to book.

Keep an eye on the UKGS`er web site....theres a connection there with Si Pavey and Nick Plumb....keep checking the `events on` section....BMW usually throw a dinner evening where you meet the riders.....went last year and it was a well run night....
Theres a French aquaintance of mine entering in the 4x4 section so I`ll keep annoying him for any info about anything!!!..........
