If you would like to attend please book direct with Annick and Ferdi, the owners.

They require a 50 Euro deposit to book a room. Unfortunately they don't accept debit or credit cards so to avoid paying UK bank charges for transfers to IBAN account numbers we sent a 50 Euro note using secure post - cost £4.26.

Walcourt is approximately 160 miles from Calais.

Thanks to Dörske :worthy: this topic is now linked to the Dutch Buell forum: http://www.buellforum.nl/topic.php?id=7558

We can't make the Buell Day in Belgium on the 5th June because we'll be at the Silverstone Moto GP with the UKBEG 'Club' stand. It would be great to meet up with a few friends from both Belgium and Holland in the Ardennes next June.

Wish I could come, the Ardennes are what Buells are made for (apart from fighting off Land Cruisers) :P

CJ, is this a touring holiday, or a chance to get out and ride those fabulous roads with "enthusiasm"?!!
Not sure if I want to spend 3 days sightseeing, but wouldn't mind mixing it with some blatting :D

Hi Garry

The main theme of this 'informal' Belgium weekend is enjoyment of the local roads, food and scenery - in that order :D...

The only 'sightseeing' trip I've planned is a trip to Bastogne, but this is entirely optional. I've visited most of the main WW2 battlefields in Europe but I've never been to the Ardennes, which witnessed the 'Battle of the Bulge' in 1944. Bastogne has a few places of interest that I've always wanted to visit.

Just the sort of event that makes me frustrated to be this side of the pond with my bike. :sad1:
Sounds like a great outing.

Garry - :yup: good luck with the request for a long weekend pass :D...

Chris - start planning now and you should be able to make it. I'm sure we could fix you up with a bike.

We can't wait for all of these 2010 events to come around. Last year was the best in UKBEG's history and this year should be even better :P....
