Re: The 1st International BMW K1200LT Treffen of Great Britain 2009

Just got back from The Castle. The landlady puts on a courtesy minibus for those staying there. So don't worry about it being a mile away from the rest of us. Bikes in her garage if you wish.

So we have to do one of those LT's in a line photos, but I think we need a twist, something out of the ordinary?? Now get your thinking heads on.

BTW - If anyone who reads this finds that B&Bs are full - give me a shout - I have just got a list of places that are also not far away and do courtesy minibus.

It'll be good to see Smutje again! Gruss Gott, mein freund!

If anyone's going the other way and finds themselves near Cologne there's nowhere else to consider than his place. We were royally looked after on our visit.

That makes it at least 12 bikes and 22 people - not bad at all.
Now, if each of us finds ONE more person each, by keeping a flyer on us at all times to put onto a K1200lt whenever we see one - it will be massive!

That's 2 American Germans with K12LTs I know now. Have a word with Hartmut when you see him here.

Jürgen, I hear you are staying a bit longer (its a small place, we hear everything), Maybe we should add a Sunday and/or Monday ride out for those staying longer.

****stop Press****

Bryn Heulog Guest House is now FULL
If you are booked into Bryn, and you have not had conformation, you may like to PM me and I will check the list with the owner for you.

Plenty of other accommodation left in the valley - if you have problems finding it - contact me.

Just got off the phone with the Castle.
Was surprised she had two single rooms left for 10-11 July.
Spoken to Chris Llanerch
So, booked over there.
One for me, one for a new entrant: Frank Pustlauk from Cologne.

This courtesy bus shure comes in handy after the Carvery and BBQ!
I'll be the Amsterdam lager lout :-)

Looking forward to some tongue twister local slang.

Yep, just been to the Castle, they have you guys booked in.
Just ONE room left now at the Castle before they are full as well.
I will be phoning round the area to see if there is anywhere else for people to stay.
(btw if you have larger at the Castle, you are missing some excellent Ales!)

What are some Welsh words/phrases I should learn?
Something like: "Can I have one of your prime ale of the house?"

Here you go - practice that all you want, it won;t get you anything though - the pubs round here don't do Welsh!

Re: The 1st International BMW K1200LT Treffen of Great Britain 2009

Hello,
I was on the Help for Heroes ride from Bovvington to Brighton last Saturday, had only just arrived and our group were deep in conversation bemoaning our journey when a very enthusiastic ' foreign accented chap' chap came along and started talking about a LT rally in Wales. My LT was the only one I'd seen all day?

I mentioned this on the CW Riderclubbers email loop and someone said, 'that was Andonni' (? spellling) but also gave a limk to this site.

So now I'm here !

Will do my very best to attend for part of the w/e, having a 5 month old baby does curtail activities, if only the top boxes were bigger.....

Cheers for now,

Steve

Re: The 1st International BMW K1200LT Treffen of Great Britain 2009

Another UK member.. Welcome Steve,
you’ll find this site very useful as we all do, all you have to do is ask,
that is if you can’t find the answer,

Will be great if you can make it to the Treffen, if only for the ride out..

NB: The top box is bigger than you might think!!

We three, Hartmut, Frank and Vic are coming in in dover Friday morning taking M20, M25 and M40, south of London. Then M42, M5, A449.

Since we're on a tight schedule we focus on arrival, no time for detours.

In Google earth dubbelclick on the *.kmz file...Shit, can't upload

Ride safe

Vic

Stick Swindon into your route as a waypoint - you will see it is a far better route from Dover. I did this last week and it took just 4 hours.
Swindon to Gloucester is very quick - not motorway, but just as fast duel carrageway. M42 has nasty variable speed cameras.
