Couldn't find any information about a twin power bbq for this year, not even in the dutch board, and the site (www.twinpower.be) has been suspended.

Perhaps they all went for an aprilia :mrgreen:

We still await confirmation that the Belgium weekend is going ahead. I was contacted towards the end of Autumn last year to see if the 18th/19th June clashed with any proposed UKBEG events, it didn't but we made sure we kept that weekend clear.

I'll see if I can find out what's occurring and report back ASAP.

We're looking forwards to another trip to Lauwe, Belgium :P...

Our bikes are booked on the following Eurotunnel crossings:

18-06-11: Folkestone to Calais = 13:20.
19-06-11: Calais to Folkestone = 11:20.

There's some good deals available at the moment, the cost is currently £28 return per bike. Last year we paid £44 return per bike.

Eurotunnel web site: here

Last year we chose our own scenic route to Lauwe through West Flanders, via Leper (Ypres) but first time visitors to the Buell Day in Belgium may be interested in these alternative routes which appeared on the Twin-Power web site a couple of years ago:

Directions to Buell Day, Lauwe:

Motorway:

From Calais take the A16-E40 to Dunkerque.
From Dunkerque take the N225/A25-E42 to Lille.
Then take the A22-E17 to Tourcoing and Gand (Gent)
After crossing the Belgium border on the E17 take the first exit - Junction 1, signed Menen.
After exiting the E17 turn left and travel under the motorway.
At the first set of traffic lights turn right, signed 'LAR', which takes you into the 'Veehallen', where the Buell Day is being held.

Non-motorway:

From Calais take the N43 signed to Ardres, St Omer, Hazebrouck.
After St Omer, at the roundabout junction between the N43 and D933, take the D933 to Cassel.
Leaving Cassel take the D948 signed to Steenvoorde.
Then take the D948/N38 signed to Poperinge.
From the N38 follow the N308.
Stay on the N308 and then take the A19 motorway signed to Kortrijk.
Exit the A19 at junction 2, signed Menen. Do not use junction 2a.
Take the N17 signed to Rekkem.
Continue through Rekkem to a roundabout, turn left to Lauwe.
At traffic lights turn right - signed 'LAR' - and at the next traffic lights turn left into the 'Veehallen', where the Buell Day is being held.


Lauwe details shown: here
