We already arrived yesterday afternoon, afer a short and save trip by car. :'(

It was the return after our sixth VIM, we startet 2003 in Holtgast as tourguides VCIF_varaGrey with my first Vara.
But I think our VIM history ends now, after a break from 2010 in Zams with my second Vara till this year by car  :(, but it is not the same to be a guest with car ora participant with the Varadero.

It was nice to meet some of the old friends/members.  VCIF_ThumbUp

Have a good and save trip home.  VCIF_salut

Best wishes

Thank you to the OrgaTeam and all the participants for a very nice VIM in Fredriksværk.
Drove home with Snurrepus and Anne Gro and Pixi314, and have arrived safely at home :-)
Hope to see you again soon :-)

Jens & Astrid it was for sure my pleasure to meet the both of you again (also to discover we all grew old and grey, lol).

Arrived back home around 15hrs yesterday. 650km in 5.5hrs (Ursula, I think Jyrki is right, 1100 in 7hrs should be doable  ;D ).

Despite major roadworks on the German A1 Autobahn. The Varadero proofed its reputation again as an excellent long distance touring machine!

Will share my pics and vids later this week. Added the grouppic yesterday.

Hello,
I have not jet arrived at home. Gone to Faaborg to make holidays with my wife. But I have had a nice 250km trip so far on smallest winding roads, going up and down...

I enjoyed the meeting very much. My thanks to the orga-team and all partcipants. I hope to meet you all again on the next VIM, wherever it will be.

We had arrived home safely at 9.45 pm last night.

After missing the 3 previous VIM's it was nice to see you all again, especially I enjoyed seeing Jens and Astrid again.

We hope to see you all next year.
