Quick update....

I have made a reservation for Friday evening at a great Munich Restaurant / Brauhaus
The route is sorted for Friday and Saturday, the details will be sent out this evening... addresses / timing / contact details / etc.

I still have not heard from Andy545, Maxwell or 320d Touring, but assume you are still joining us.

More to follow later today... :)

For a long time I have thought we were able to join the whole meet but last week it started to like I had to work on Friday/Saturday and now it is for 99% certain that I have to work both days to get my companies yearly balance sheet ready in time so it looks like we have to skip this meet. :|
I am sorry that it took so long, but I hoped that maybe it would turn out differently.

I hope you guys have a great meet and hope to be able to join the next one.

Guten tag!

And greetings from Kassel, Germany!!

The weather on the way down from Travemünde was terrible (fog, rain, hard wind), but we made it in one piece.

Top speed in the unrestricted areas was only 205km/h due to the weather. However, that is still the fastest that I have ever driven my E61! :)

My wife was not exactly as thrilled as I was about this... :lol:

It is a holiday here (in this state at least), so this place is rather quiet!

We are looking forward to seeing you in Würzburg tomorrow.

Wow, sounds like it is going to be an outstanding, well-planned meet. Wish I could have attended but it's just a little too far from New York City. :lol:

Don't fret over last minute cancellations or members on the list who don't show (and don't warn you that they are not showing). That's just a part or organizing meets.

Have fun!!

I spoke to Sanjay the other day and he can't make it. So we're keeping to plan and meeting at hotel / BMW Welt.

We had a GREAT drive down from Copenhagen to Frankfurt yesterday... AUTOBAAAAAAAHN :devil: (My wife wasn't quite as thrilled when the needle was at 260km/h, but I had fun :whistle: ) I'm heading off down to Würzburg shortly to meet with smoppet and Patrick E61, and the road trip continues... :D

Looking forward to catch up with you and Tej later today.

GOOD TIMES :D

We managed 230km/h on the A9, south of Würzburg today, a bit north of Ingolstadt.

Traffic (damn caravans) got in the way, or 250km/h would have been ours. :lol:

Trying to digest pork knuckle and too many weissebiers now... :o

Burp.

I am sure that some pics will come later!

Greetings from Bormio, Italy! :o

I took about 250 pics, but I am all over Central Europe at the moment, with no real time to upload pics or vid clips to youtube... :|

However, there will be some sort of album and write-up made!

Here are a few pictures in the mean time. :)
