A big Thank You !
« on: May 25, 2015, 19:09:45 »
A big thank you to all participants !!! You have been marvellous !!! YOU have made this meeting wonderful and so stunning ! Your kindness and friendship have made me more then happy!!! thank you again from all my heart!



But after some promises , after Friday "incidents " , I've had again been told about some discourtesy ...  :( yes we can understand people come to have pleasure and fun, but no, I don't understand people do not respect each other... You discredit this community with respect to our host. (obviously still at camping...)

Yes I am angry because the party was beautiful!...  >:(

Thanks to you Gilles!

Don't worry. Even if you could control everything, it's impossible to please everyone.

Regards,

Josep M.

I do not know what happened on monday since we left the campsite very early and quietly. We both did not speak a word and anyone who knows us will know how difficult that was for us.  ;D

I do not want to cast aspersions on nationality, and we must stop this part of the discussion; the title is A BIG THANK YOU; yes you've made a nice ambiance, it was fantastic.
But yes my last contact with this meeting at the camping was sad; I am sad, disillusioned and angry; and sorry I have to say ! ...

A BIG THANK YOU to my "piou-pious" as we call them in France , the back markers Hervé & Mumu known as Blues Lovers or Varaderi ;

 they have done great job!  ;) And thank you all during the trips; having perfectly done the "drawer" ( special thanks to the "girls" on their bike, driving perfectly in the hairpins ); people preventing when leave the group , etc ... Not so easy for us sometimes with 40 or more bikes !

Bravo! well done!   ;)

VCIM17 was absolutely great. I want to thank Gilles in particular, but of course all the participants for making this such a nice experience. Once again I (as none Varadero driver) was welcomed in your midst. Being there for the third time makes me feel like part of the "family".
I am really sorry to hear that the same group has caused problems again. This is not what the VCIM is about. They embarrassed their country, they put shame on all bikers and they made complete fools of themselves.

Martin enjoyed his third VCIM20 so much that he decided to join the forum and, even better, we are not only going to vcim18 in Belgium, but we are even thinking of attending vcim19 in Sweden. All three are very good things.

This year was Awesome! Thanks everyone who attended.

Gilles has raised the bar to an incredible level for future vcim's. The wines will be impossible to beat and good luck finding a host like Yvan. And the roads were fantastic. I am still enjoying this memory.

No, Gilles, the 12 points goes to YOU for arranging such an incredible VCIM and for finding such a wonderful place to hold it!

And 10 points goes to Yvan, for his hospitality, his wonderful wine and his enthusiasm!

Before this VCIM I wasn´t sure about next year in Belgium, as is´t only 1000 km +/-, from here  ;D, but now it seems I´ll have to make a detour  ;D

Just joking, in fact it´s because there are other places I´d like to go too, and as you can´t go everywhere, you have to make priorities, but, after this VCIM Belgium is on top of the priority list!

Menno: you´re right about the wine, but maybe we´ll have the same amount in belgian beer next year?  ;D
And I didn´t hear you leaving, but on the other hand it seems I don´t hear anything when I´m sleeping (it´s you hearing me  ;D ).

And Gilles, since my complain about my booking problems seems to have given you some speculations, I shall here apologize to both you and Stewart for beeing a little rough in my writing at that time.
Maybe my booking problems had something to do with this strange danish letter I have in my forum name, the "Ø", as I couldn´t use my old login, but had to make a new one, I don´t know.

See you all next year in Belgium, I can´t wait!
Plan your ride, ride your plan.
