Quiet

It's quiet on the forum.

Are all the members on motorcycle journeys or do they have other plans?

We (my family and I) go to my wife's family in SK (if Corona doesn't mess things up again).
There we'll try to do some hiking in the low and high Tatras.

So no motorcycle holiday for me this year (third year in a row  :( )

What are you're plans or do you want to keep them secret so we have plenty of stuff to talk about when we meet in Poland 2022.

Many greetings,

hello Bruno, and happy everybody is ok in your family;
7000 kms since end of April and end of the last confinement; but a lot of off road / All road sessions and plans, and you know such experience are not welcome here; pity that we no longer have any news from these people with more "classic" experiences. We are actually in the Alps, bivouac/camping and tracks and old military roads are on the menu  ;)
A lot of things to share in Poland next year, have to stay there more then the VIM duration  ;D enjoy your vacations

Here it was special pretty shitty life events that, well, made me want to save money so traveling
wasn't high up on the menu.

Changed job and unfortunately my new company was atrocious, my boss literally was cursing
all people and pressuring people until they explode, so I quit and was unemployed for a bit, now
starting a fantastic new job on the 9th, so maybe an excursion in Corsica or Austrian alps.

We'll see can't go crazy still !

Well - I feel guilty  :-X
We have 8000 km on the odo so far this year.
A few daytrips and one longer trip in the whitsun weekend.

This Wednesday we'll go for a 10 days vacation to Sweden and Denmark, meeting Bønne in Copenhagen.
Next weekend we will end up in Eidfjord in Hardanger in western Norway.
There we will meet friends from the old Norwegian forum, and also the guy who owns my old (wrecked) Varadero - rebuilt.

If the Covid allows us to go to UK in September, we plan to participate at the UK Varadero meeting VUK2021 in Wales, and also visit Isle of Man.

I promise to put some pictures on the forum  VCIF_salut
See you deep in a German forest ;)

Overall ok.
Sometimes I still feel some light pain in the ribs but that is normal in the doctors opinion.
Thanks for asking!
