Not to Angoulême, next week to Italy, too late for the first event.

September 2026: Gran Premio Nuvolari (September 17–20), a highly prestigious international regularity rally for historic cars. The massive 1,100 km route spans five Italian regions, also Umbria. The route: stopping at the Autodromo dell'Umbria in Magione and winding through historic local city centers. Also the Cronoscalata della Castellana (September 25–27, 2026) a famous Italian hill climb event celebrating its 53rd edition. While it features modern race cars, it traditionally highlights a spectacular lineup of historic racing vehicles. Not far away from our temporary address, in Orvieto, Umbria. To October: the Modena Cento Ore (October 6–11, 2026). One of Italy's premier luxury historic car challenges, combining circuit racing and closed-road hill climbs. While it originates across the border in Emilia-Romagna/Tuscany, the rally's changing multi-day transit stages frequently dip into the scenic roads and valleys of neighboring Umbria.

Last but not least, to-do list, buy an extra memory card for my little Panasonic camera.
