that NEDERLAND SPINE RAID

It's a longish trip, but I could concievably actually ride to that. Should it happen, and time constraints allowing.

With the challenges of bringing our Chief Whip to a South'n SpineRaid  in Tennessee, USA (we've tried! ), I shamelessly propose we take the party to him. Varsseveld is "relatively" centrally located in The Netherlands and yet striking distance for much of our European brothers, and those in the UK.  (Listen to me, talking a big game from across the pond . . . ).

Quoting MojoFuzzi in the Post a Picture thread, "there’s a lot of Dutch spinies on the forum 💪🏻. "

(To name just a few) . . .

Best wishes, gentlemen!       

I noticed this cozy place that looks just right for a SpineRaid . . .

I'm seeing under 200 kilometers from Leipzig to Varsseveld.

Striking distance!

Interesting topic  and love the idea.
About twenty years ago, I organised two V11 meetings: 2004 in Varsseveld (hometown) and 2007 in Sibbe (South Limburg NL). Great fun! And lots of international guests from allover Europe. I've kept in touch with a few of the attendees; beginning of June I'm meeting some Brits that attended in 2007. 
I've been playing with the idea of a 25year Anniversary rally in 2027. But, at the moment I'm still way to busy with my small business, being a city councillor and my lovely girlfriend (randomly ordered), so this year is not going to happen.

BTW, that hotel is about 500 meters from my home!
Docc, sorry to correct you but Leipzig > Varsseveld is about 550 kms.

WHAT caused you to do something as absurd as to create a forum for something as laden w/foibles as this ?

 I do know w/o this , I would not own my V11s  and I certainly not appreciate them  or have a relationship w/a task force of other addicts .

Not to far from Rotterdam, on the bank of the river Lek (that reaches the Northsea in Rotterdam), in the little town of Tienhoven we have an International Guzzi Rally the 3rd weekend of June. I help organizing it and all of you are most welcome. Registration is not required, always enough space to pitch your tent.

Relaxed atmosphere, Friday BBQ, live music on Friday and Saturday night. Small band to help us through the Saturday afternoon. Food en drinks availble. Small ride out on Saturday, booth sale/used parts an all.

We always lack a good portion of spine frames.
