moved to pictures thread !






some of you know that we have one Member who is in a bad situation and trying to recover to full health
therefore he is not able to join meetings right now !

but we all may be able to bring a meeting to him....
( thx again Doc for bringing up this idea )

ok

only a few may know that we have another member of the club who is in a situation ,.. i dont know what to say... its so bad..., unbelieveable..., and i really feel very sad about him...

he is living near the other member
and both are not that far away from me... AND YOU....


i think its a very good idea to arrange something to get them both to our next meeting

therefore 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....


we will see how many members wants the meeting ....when....
like a poll....


thx in advance
Falko

[johnjr]

I will join...however, it must be Sept. unfortunatley for me I have all of Aug. and first week of Sept. booked with visitors......so I would prefer Sept...middle to late....is always good weather....and I think it would be nice if we could consider the area around Mannheim, and south of the Frankfurt busy, busy, busy metro area....the farther south of Frankfurt the better!!!!! ;D

Just my thoughts........am always open for Better Suggestions? ....cause I am a Swiss man.... ;D ;D

[oliver]

I'll join too but I have a training period in september for my job, don't have now exactly the date but I'll do my best if it's in september.

[peer]

Put me on the list Falko, please!

2nd and 4th week of September, October 1st, 3rd and 4th week is OK for the moment.

We drive during the day and drink in the evening!

[fred]

Hi guys, for me I've a Venture Club de France meeting the 10th/11th september and our general assembly of directory board the last week end of september.

Later....

Falko :

this posting has been modifyed

this thread has a specific question and point of information

pls stay with these points

all other questions dont belong here


for those who are not able to understand this / because of bad english : i can explain that - but not in a topic-specific - thread
i would prefer to ask and answer those questions via pm or on the phone...

for those who are not able to understand even this ( see above )
it may happen that there will be decisions made about your memberstatus...

[Falko]

so 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...

ask Johnjr. about that place - because i have been there together with him last year - he may give you a clue


pls let me know if you have plans to join - which time would be ok for you and what you like to do..

[Pi-eF vum Elsass]

ok for me .

[Falko]

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..

I would love to come but I can't give a 100% yes till after the July meeting.

[doc]

I know it was my sugestion, but I am still getting conflicting reports on if Roland is well enough to plan around him.

Maybe it would be good to have something close by for him.
Maybe he will feel well enough to attend, maybe he would feel too ill to attend (which would be a disapointment for him), and maybe he will feel fit and want to have the chance to put some miles on his bike.

From what he told me on the phone yesterday I belive he feels he is unable to make any plans at present.

From my own personal point of view I feel we are spending too much time in Germany with 3 times for the first 3 meetings.

I am certainly very happy to go to Germany if this is for the best and we should check with Roland (and be sure to get Ruths opinion too) closer to the time before setting anything in stone.

With the International in Holland this year too I'm finding going north all the time is getting repetative, so I'll have to see how I feel closer to the time.

We just came back from Ruth and Roland. We had a great weekend overthere. We - those were : Bunnie, Jolanda, Pief, Blondie, Winghunter and myself and the "Venture dogs"

Ruth and Roland : Thanks so much for that really nice weekend. We enjoyed it so much and we were able to see the glance in all our eyes ! Hope we could help with our presence just a little bit ! It was just the minimum we could do ! For sure : We will do it everytime again ! We do not need to organise a meeting, just to help a friend. If he is is fine in September, he will ride to the middle of nowwhere ! But for the moment he cannot make long term plans. Roland is a person who loves to ride, doesn`t matter where the meeting place is !

Again : Both of you are so nice people and we are proud to be your friends ! We cross our fingers and pray to god, that Roland recovers soon !

Whenever you need any help : We will be there. That is a part where a friendship is to use for !

Camping


Bunnie and winghunter increased their weight, due to the reason that Ruth feeds them to much ;D


Somewhere on the road. thanks "Roadcaptain : Pief !








Here is the "Bad Boy" on a "Bad Bike" ;D ;D ;D


I aggree with Doc, when he says, 3 meetings in Germany are to much for the moment. There is a need to change !

[TwoWheels]

Maybe not,but this section was all about Roland & I'm glad to see a picture of him on his two feet,great pics lads,that visit will give Roland a good boost back to good health again.

you show again - how you tick,,,,

this is not the picture section !

That comment was uncalled for and you still must make an issue out of your relationship with Rudy...shame shame shame........this DOES NOT BELONG ON THIS FORUM!!!!!!!
You continue to be hard of hearing!!!!!!

Great pics...and I am sure the rest of the members are greatful for this visit to Roland and the pics you have shared with us...thanks all who visited Roland and helped him make it through a tough time...Hi Ruth & Roland...Looking Good!!!!!!!!!! ;D ..wish I could have come.....

[doc]

WTF this isn't the picture section??
It's a thread you started about Roland, of course they are relevent.

I'm happy to see Roland looking better and I don't give a f**k where they are posted, and niether would you except for who posted them.

Again you don't care who or what you use to score personal points.

I'm too angry to post what I think of that, and you, without flaming you so you'll just have to imagine what i'd say to you.

I'm seriously starting to question whether I wish to continue in this club with you leading it.

I imagine you'll now use this opertunity to tell me to f**k off if I don't like it, when in fact what you should do is apologise.

[doc]

OK with a cooler head.
I'm glad to hear of your ride to see Roland I wish too I could have been there (and the g'dam washing machine we needed to buy that stopped me comming has to go back as it's faulty).

I know I got a little info on how Roland is feeling first hand yesterday but I'd love to hear what he told you, and how Ruth is coping.

Start a new thread for it and we can get a report and maybe see more pics without (count to 10 and keep my temper) upseting anyone.

[blackscorpion]

Yes Doc, cool down. We missed you on that ride to Roland. But when I look to my father and Bunnie - they got real fat :-)))) - due to that great hosting. Ruth - don`t feed them to much ;D ;D

I will post pictures in a picture section ( is that a new rule ? ),when my father will have those finished.


Don`t worry Doc. All of us can imagine your emotions.

[fred]

Many Thanks,
i´m going to take a bow.

If i had big emotions and i would scream them out, i got one slap from my father, and he say: go out in the wood, scream how strong you can, and then came back and tell me like a man what you want and what are be happen.
This was the way i learnd to control myself and to keep discipline.

If we want make nails with heads, we have to control and discipline all what we do.

Many Thank
I´m going to take a bow again
