Early in the morning I landed back in Israel after spending a couple of days in Germany, I had some work to do in Hannover which I finished faster than I expected (It took me 5 minutes, literally).
This means I had spare time to conduct, along with Pete Heinzel - the first Trans Mediterranean confluence.
I was lucky enough to attend his band's rehearsal which was really cool and I got to know Pete a little bit.
This forum is simply amazing, I don't think that many communities will have members inviting people they never met who happen to be "in the neighborhood" to stay up in their place. It is amazing how timeless and ageless music and guitars loving are.
I have attached a small picture from our confluence,
I am the fat guy on the left with the too much facial hair (and the 4004
)Pete - sorry, I had to chop the legs, this was unbearable!
- Peter Heinzel - Right (4001)
Gil Disatnik - Left (4004)
A few other trivial things I discovered in this trip (motor-related, feel free to skip).
- Ford Focus 1.8L Benzine has a pretty accurate speedometer (gps verified)
- Ford focus 1.8L Benzine, on a very long road with no speed limits can hit 215Km/H!
- It does that at 6100 RPM
- It also redlines at 6100
- The German autobahn is simply great (up until now I never had the chance to drive inside Germany for more than 100Km. This time I did almost 1000Km).
