You might have to explain what BIMMER means to some forum members as they may not be aware of the term going by some posts earlier in the year............... :wink:


Looks like it will be a great event

For us northerners the overnight ferry from Hull to Rotterdam is a good one with Venlo not far away on the motorway into Holland

Both ferry and tunnel.

Some are heading out on Friday via ferry but myself and others are going on the Thursday via tunnel.

I'm hoping to lead a small convoy from the uk on Thursday with a plan of staying overnight somewhere close to bruge. Hotel still to be arranged.
Fridays plan was to possibly meet up with those coming on the Friday and then drive to venlo where we all have reservations to stay here.

I am thinking of going over Friday just not sure which route yet. The chateau looks abit better than the local travel lodge type place on the bimmerfest website I must admit. I have emailed for my paddock card but believe the woman dealing with them is on her hols at the moment!

Just received my Alpina Paddock Card from Alyssa via email.
Only 5 weeks to go :D

Whatever you do, don't fill up in Holland.
Fuel is £0.26 a litre dearer :(
