Post Meeting-Starting point
Any ideas where to meet. I am happy to offer our place near Rennes in France as meeting place. It may be out of the way coming from northen, central or eastern Europe. Maybe several meeting points can be set up around France or Spain. Maybe just rock up at Tarifa ferry terminal?

Ceuta is not a great place for a meeting point - it's absolute _chaos_.

When we did the Dakar, the organisers had booked an entire small hotel a shortish drive from Algeciras (Sotogrande, IIRC), with the aim of spending two nights there to meet/drink/chat/fix cars. Ideal - the ferry company sent a rep to the hotel to sell tickets, anybody who'd had problems heading through France & Spain could sort them.

I can agree on Ceuta!

My idea was only a short stop and maybe some travellers has taken another ferry from France or Italy and then we could have the first official meeting there.
But your idea about the possibillity to fix car problems buy tickets an so sound like a good idea.

This is our plan today.
From Brittany to Algeciras roughly 1850 km. If we can do this in 2 days, we will. 925 km per day is a bit much but possible hopefully without break downs.
Anyone from the north or north east is more than welcome to join us.

You can make a lot of different rutedirections, Algecerias -Madrid, Madrid Zaragosa and then, in the sidepanel, mark the ones you want showed on the map.
For each rute you should fold the hole rute out, unmark all and then only mark the last one saying "rute". Othervise you will get a map with rutedirection writen all over.
