actual infos on next VCE meeting

look above: easy topic ! should be understand by anyone...

please only respond if you have to say something about the next VCE meeting ( this meeting ! )

if you are planning anything else - maybe your own meet and greet

do so by opening a new thread

if you only want to argue about anything else, think about it, and post it in the correct section - like discussions about the club should belong into members-section !

if you dont want to join the next VCE - meeting - just dont answer

cause discussion is only up for those who want to participate and join the meeting

[Falko]

the next meeting will be held
in the Frankfurt am Main - area

( it may be Laubach again, it may be another place ...)

nothing planned right now... neither date nor place... everything is open...

it may be in August it may be in September or October- lets start to talk about :

who will join...
when would you like to plan the meeting
where would you like to have it
what would you like to do ( more ride or more sit and talk and drink ,....)

etc....

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

right now it seems that
sep 22-24
would be fine for all who stated that they are interested

( but this can change ..., we will see which date is best )

i would plan a meeting for only one other Venturer
and 5 others are a good beginning

bit i wont tell any news when saying that i expect a bit more guests

if we wont be more then 30 Venturers - i will arrange a barbecue in the Castle i am living, down in the dungeon over a hughe fire place

its a castle from the 17th century located in a beautiful park area - this park was planned by Goethe , and Goethe also builded a monument that is still to seen in the Park of the Castle , for those who like the younger history more, i will try to arrange a guided tour through the bunkers beneath the Castle, btw.: this Castle has been the Head Quarter of Adolf Hitler during the Ardennes Offensive... and was called "Eagles Nest" - Adlerhorst, dont discuss that time... its just history - and i dont have a bald head...


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

btw.: you also can ask Cornè ...
who stayed an overnight in the castle
with me -
no !!! he had his on sleeping place !

i have found a nice place very near
where we can camp and also rent a house with beds

its a christian place for young people owned by a church, a big fire place outside, lot of space, far away enough from the next house to stay up all the night with good music, cheap but good

i have to check if available for that time...

only prob we would have to take care of breakfast etc on our own

but i am able to at least have a free experienced cook for that weekend

breakfast should not be a problem
a barbecue could be done by ourselfs
and everything else could also be arranged

if there is interest to join the meeting
so please let me know - if you would prefer camping or a bed

btw.: there are 6 beds - rooms ! just like a youth - hostel
that could be real fun ... but if you prefer a nice small country hotel with single rooms, 3,5 min. away on the bike, and ten min. if you want to walk, i have to know that too

i will check prices and everything the next weeks...
and keep you informed..

[Falko]

one place we will visit on the tour
infos only in german but nice pictures :

www.runkel-lahn.de/gross/freizeit_frame.html





one of the real famous things on the way :

the only ship-tunnel in germany , a tunnel through a hill only for ships
www.weilburg.de/de/page136.htm

kugelblick.de/panos/wwp0506/8511_de.html


more infos soon

[Falko]

just a question of where you seek informations.:
the castle i`m living in is from at least 1388 - cause the oldest piece of paper where the castle is named is from 1388...
the still standing tower and castle was rebuild in 1757
and the flat i live in was rebuild last century

[Falko]

for the afternoon planned is something special again

i will show you : Falco Peregrinus Germanicus



my heraldic animal

we will visit the oldest place where those birds are raised in hassia
its located on the great Feldberg
where we will watch a flight show of Falco`s and Eagles

with a bit of luck we can feed them with mice

btw.: the "großer Feldberg is also a Bikers meeting point.... you will see...

[roland]

@ all:
To bring a little light in the darkness: I talked to Falko some time ago and I told him that I am not able to organize a meeting because of my illness.

But I told him he can organize one wherever and whenever he want and if I am able to take part I will do so. For this it's not really interesting where and when it is. Wether I can take part or not.

Guys! the community of the VCE is the most important thing in the club. All other has no priority. And I can't tell enough how much I enjoyed the visit of some members last weekend. Friends, this is what we all need.

Greetings
Roland

Greetings Roland

i still think :

the closer we do the meet - the bigger the chance to catch up or visit

that simple... !

btw.: only that i dont make big announcements out of something - because i think it is not up to me to tell ! dont mean - i didnt kept my promise ! :

venturers.proboards42.com/index.cgi?board=membertalk&action=display&thread=1142336704&page=1#1144660351

only diff.: Brigitte and i went alone...

[Falko]

i need to start with the organisation of rooms or the place i spoke off above...
hotel will not become a big prob, but the earlier i can ask the better the prices could be..
that interesting place with place for camping and 6 bed rooms is early (long-time) written of ... , therefore i need feadback
if you like that idea or would prefer a "normal" hotel...

and as i needed to restart this thread severall times, i would like to see you confirm your interest

till now, 5 members announced interest...
pls verify that you are still interested

thx in advance

September dates look fine to me i will talk to Gordon and see how many we can muster to come over , Laubach sounds good as long as" we dont have to walk miles to our Hotel"
We should be able to get at least 6 to come over then and have a good meet and some good rides,good food , good beer and maybe some good German wine, sounds just great cant waite.

as noone else did mention another date ...

it is... right now..., and it should stay with that date..., if maybe a group from poland would like to have another date... i would need to setup something like a poll
but that should happen in the next few weeks or it is to late...
and the date is set...

again i do need a little feedback to the question where to sleep...

look above..

[Falko]

more infos :

for those who will have a long trip and are real hungry and thursty :

on friday or any other day we can drive to the place where you will find the biggest "schnitzel" "rumpsteaks"(1,2 kg !!! ) and drinks you have ever seen

there is a "bembel" of death with 8 litres of bacardi cola, there is a "pitcher" of doom , and more such meals and drinks:







i think they can compete with the strongest irish drinkers...

here is the lovely view from that place over the frankfurt skyline...



and here we will find a place for us:




these are waiting for you... dont be shy try to win that fight ! :

[Falko]

i really like those glasses :



but dont forget :

to tell: i had only one glass of beer officer - wont work !

[Falko]

a picture from th eplace i would lik eto held the meeting:

the round place in front is the big fireplace

[Falko]

we are allready in the danger that the desired place is compl. booked for that date...

therefore i need to know

who wants to join
how would you like to stay - hotel / camping / youth or boy-scout hostel , etc...

[Falko]

if we have to take a hotel would you prefer a

low -class like in laubach - cheap but clean and good food...

or

mid class - price ok , but a big breakfast buffet

i dont ask for a hilton - high-class - cause i would just not like to stay and pay there...

[Falko]

i have news about a very cheap place where we can meet

also a weekend hotel from a church group

its located at the place i lived before in the forest near butzbach

the group who joined the ride from laubach to my place have seen
the place and hotel

price per person overnight incl. full pension - 3 meals !
is only 32,--€ without lunch a bit cheaper ...

camping even less than this ! camping in front of the hotel
near the horses ( remember the pic i posted horses in the winter from my flat photographed...? )

but also here we have to make a quick arrangement !

[ingemar]
