Diary: In Italy, finally. March 2nd, 8 p.m.

03.03.2004

Today Valtra M120e has crossed two borders. After driving more than 2500
after the start in Suolahti, we reach Italy in the evening.

During the last part of the German trip the snow has been again a companion of our
group. We’ve passed Munich and Innsbruck easily, avoiding city centre.
In Munich, the group has met the a journalist from Finnish TV. Breathing
Italian air is a pleasure, even more pleasure comes from the snack
offered by Falser company, Valtra dealer in Ora, South Tyrol. After many
days our drivers are quite tired, but Italian food and wine help giving
the last sprint. Also the idea that the arrival in Fieragricola, Verona,
is very close gives our team more energy and adrenaline.
Fuel consumption of Valtra M120e keeps constant, a bit less than ten
litres per hour, so far no problems in spite of a continuos running 24
hours per day.
