those that cant get the time off can just go for the weekend, and those skivers amoungst us cant take a whole week.
also gives the opportunity of a long weekend ie fri to mon etc.

I thought the reason for Wednesday-Wednesday was that islanders that wanted to come over for an entire week could profit from cheaper ferry prices...

me 2 and it works out costing me 4 days leave to get the wed to wed off.

all i gotta do now is work some overtime sharpish then get booked on ferry and digs over there.

if tony could find out sharpish about camping / prices i may have to go that direction. [Image: good.gif]

yep would like to attend this merry event and will know nearer the time.

RTT07 - Ruppertshofen, Rhine Valley, Germany. - pilootdotcom - 11-01-2007

My Sprint ST and V-strom friends are warming up to the idea of coming along. I guess it will be of the long weekend variety, not an entire week.

I was wondering two things.<ol type='1'>[*]Is anybody consulting this event with the guys on the (huge) german TDM forum www.tdm-forum.net?[*]Is it perhaps a nice idea to ask the CLS guy to set up a stand during the weekend or so to install CLS chain-oilsystems for those that are interested (worked great during the V-strom gathering in Kulmbach)?</ol>

Hey Toneski

any further details about possible camping ETC.

need to get moving on booking and looking for ferries etc etc

got me hols booked and granted for the 4th to 11th so got a start at least.

RTT07 - Ruppertshofen, Rhine Valley, Germany. - dapleb - 12-01-2007

yes I think camping at the same site as the accom would be the bestest option as there are quite a few people who seem to want to camp.

Speaking of breaking wind....

....that reminds me what's the nearest Renthal or whatever match to the 900's handlebar ? Precise model that's not gonna screw up distances to brakes etc??


.... which also reminds me where can you get 850 wing mirrors - i prefer them to the 900 ones?

PS I should have a free pass in July to visit the Fatherland (not mine but you know what I mean)

I got an AB-M alu bar "Superbike Type 0229 Standard Artikel-Nr.: 221-00464-15". Available in silver, gold, blue, black, red and titanium. Very happy with it, mine is in titanium color.

Hi Gazman, afaik the 99 onward TDM 850 has identical mirrors to the 900's. Or are you considering fitting the older style "square look" ones from the MKI's and 1996-1998 MKII's by any chance ?? regards WiCkY

Hi Wicky - yes it must have been the MK1 model.

The online place that sold me the last pair for my old bike stopped stocking them. Funnily enough I do have a spare 900 left hand wing mirror to replace the one broken on Hogmanay - thanks to my previous pre-crash bike getting blown over onto its right side - see, every cloud really does has a silver lining?

Back to topic and my original question; I'm guessing nobody has been talking to the German TDM forum guys about this event? Looking at the attendee list it won't be that busy, or is everybody waiting till the last few weeks?

Looked at some maps this weeekend to start sussing out a route.

Loved this quote from the directions to the Nurburg ring - "There is no pretty way accross Belgium"
