We will ned a little meet over Christmas to sort out details…I can feel beer and curry coming on!
December 10, 2011 at 7:27 am #62928ses310ModeratorThat sounds like a good plan to me
December 10, 2011 at 9:57 am #62929ChampsParticipantIndeed
December 13, 2011 at 7:55 pm #62930katanaParticipantYep i’m up for it. I’ve been checking out nearby farmhouses to rent such as these:

(this one looks like a big shed, is “Partly insulated”, will sleep 11, 20KM from the circuit and is £240 for the weekend – PERFECT!)https://www.belvilla.co.uk/holiday-home/netherlands/smilde-12-persons-NL-9422-02
What do you reckon?
December 13, 2011 at 8:46 pm #62931RadarModeratorGood idea Kat.
I will try and set up the plan meet/beer/curry early in the new year
December 13, 2011 at 9:54 pm #62932ChampsParticipantI am under the impression there’s a Ducati weekend thing on at Assen at the same time. I maybe wrong and lying to you all.
If there is, is it worth planning this fairly early as all accomodation may run out!
Either way, I like this one https://www.holiday-rentals.co.uk/p475152
That one that looks like a big shed also looks like a doctors waiting room in the lounge.
December 13, 2011 at 10:28 pm #62933RadarModeratorGood tip on the Ducati weekend.
Like the accomodation, there is even a lake to keep the Hondas in…
December 13, 2011 at 11:40 pm #62934katanaParticipantThe Ducati Weekend is at the other European round in Misano in June. So we should be relatively OK accomodation wise, but it would still be an idea to get it sorted sooner then later.

Ducati Club Race 2012
33e Ducati Clubrace 11, 12 en 13 mei 2012Haal je agenda voor 2012 maar voor de dag. De datum van de Ducat Clubrace 2012 staat vast: 11, 12 en 13 mei is het weer zover, dan zal het zinderende, Ducati geweld weer losbarsten op het TT-circuit in Assen.
Volgens de bekende en beproefde formule zal dit weekend georganiseerd worden, en alle klassen die we gewend zijn zullen aan de start te zien zijn. Er zullen wat aanpassingen aan reglementen, klassensamenstellingen en andere zaken doorgevoerd worden met het doel om het evenement nog beter te maken.
Zodra meer details bekend zijn, worden ze bekend gemaakt.
Reserveer nu eerst maar het 2e weekend in mei in je agenda als aanwezig in Assen!
Clubrace Commissie Ducati Club NederlandDecember 14, 2011 at 8:12 pm #62937teamafterdarkParticipantIts going to be great to have you all come along. Its the Ducati club race weekend and I’m reliably informed that its a real scream. Looks like the saturday evening bbq could be busy!!!!!! We are hoping that Fretless will be there with us aswell.
December 14, 2011 at 11:02 pm #62938katanaParticipantCheers Tim – there’s a few others from work who are interested as well
Champs – I see what you mean now. It’s the Dutch Ducati Club weekend so should be busy but not REALLY busy.
December 15, 2011 at 8:06 pm #62939ChampsParticipantI’m glad thats what all that meant. My Dutch isn’t the best. I understood ‘Ducati Club Race’ and ’11, 12 and 13 May 2012′!
December 17, 2011 at 6:09 pm #62940RadarModeratorWhat suits folk best for the planning meet/curry…weekday or weekend?
December 17, 2011 at 7:27 pm #62941ses310ModeratorEither for me, doesn’t make much difference
