May 2005 - Maymeeting in Luxembourg

Post by coyote1980 » Sun Jan 30, 2005 2:22 pm

At this moment Kevin Oort and some mates are working on preparing a meeting. Location: the point where Holland, Germany and Belgium collide. (Vaals, NL) 8)

edit: probably not at the Three-countries-point! (NL-D-B) but in Luxembourg!

Not too many details are known at the moment, when more info becomes available we will publish it on the website:

Link to Maymeeting 2005 page

It's pretty likely this will be a three-day meeting with the same setup as the Luxembourg-meeting in 2004. That means:
- Saturday (May 14th) - gathering at the camping
- Sunday (May 15th) - a tour (probably with questions) and probably a dinner together
- Monday (May 16th) - time to say goodbye and head home again

:volvo: The meeting is in the same weekend as the Pentecoste / Whitsun holiday, so most of you will be free on monday! So keep these dates free on your calendar! :D

Because it's hard to get hold of decent campingspace we're also keeping the option to do the meeting at the same camping as 2004 in Luxembourg! We'll keep you posted!

I'll come, if I can get my windsceen changed on my ES, or if I can find a way of insuring my turbo.

I'll come anyhow, even if I have to come with someone, or take one of the other cars (460 or 760)

Sounds good, that might be a possibility for me, but minus the car (difficult to fit on the plane) ....I might be in Luxembourg in May visiting some of my family!....and could I come along and say hallo!

Well, why change a winning team ;)

And most of the other campings aren't too keen on having a group of car-freaks on their grounds, and other campings couldn't provide space for us because of the whitsun-holiday, so that's basically why.

Next year will be on a different location though, but this year same place.

I will be coming in the twin pipes even if she isn't fully sprayed by then. She might have a few other more important things done though :)
