Just a quick bit of info for those sorting out insurance....
Whilst I was looking into this last year, I discovered that there is an agreement between insurance companies in EU states 'to offer the minimum level of cover in that state' when insuring motorists for driving abroad. Makes a lot of sense, and seems like the purpose of it is too avoid unnecessarily complicated insurance issues. So, in theory, whatever insurance policy you have, you will be covered. So much for good ideas...... If there is small print excluding the Nordschleife by name or by any other wording then the insurance company will seek to claim the damages back from you. Apparently its best not to ask your insurance company directly as they will invariably say 'no'. You need to look at the driving abroad small print to see if there is some clause regarding 'one-way de-restricted toll roads'. If there is, it is probably relating specifically to the Nordschleife. (Although not too sure how the 'de-restricted' thing would stand up in court as the Nordschleife is a public road with many restrictions, including some speed restrictions - but wouldn't want to test this defense out myself!) As I had just renewed last year (with Gary) I paid the £60. But my previous policy was less than £60 more than my current one and had no such (mean, considering the 'agreement') exclusion. |

May be the cheapest but the service i found was very bad.I have had my bikes and cars insured with them in the past all good to begin with but if you want to ask questions or change anything watch out.Had a change of car mid policy and they wanted £85 off me when the whole policy was only £215 when i questioned it was basicly told like it or lump it.Cancelled it on the spot and went else where been with them now for 5 years with no b*****it.

I have spoken to a chap that specialises in track day insurance,
and regularly covers trips to "The Ring" He has said to me to get in contact with him, when I was able to give, details of : 1. Names 2. Reg numbers 3. Car values Please PM me with your details and I will contact him, on behalf of anyone that wants insurance. Obviously the rate will go down if we can get a group purchase.

It was always going to happen unfortunately. Especially in the current climate.
The one good thing though is that we could go as one lot all the way instead of going as two sections and meeting up en-route and at venue etc ![]() We have talked a couple of times about meeting up to discuss all of the bits and bobs. Is everyone coming to the SES meet on the 28th Feb? If not, can I suggest a date of Friday 6th March at about 7.30pm in the evening at a central point for all that are coming? I will be going to the SES meet and will obviously go to the meeting on the 6th March if not done on 28th Feb. |

Right then guys, we seem to have found the version everyone likes.
All of the versions are below. Please check YOUR version to see if you like it as it is. The two longer names (Major Scooby & Silver Surfer) I have done as 2 lines, as it would have been a very small font size. I can change it if you prefer, but I think personally they look better this way. Please check spellings too. Right then, here we go: ![]() [img]http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/worzelg/FinalRingStickerBIGE.jpg[/img] [img]http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/worzelg/FinalRingStickerCROWMAN.jpg[/img] [img]http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/worzelg/FinalRingStickerDUNCAN.jpg[/img] [img]http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/worzelg/FinalRingStickerMAJORSCOOBY.jpg[/img] [img]http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/worzelg/FinalRingStickerNIGE.jpg[/img] [img]http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/worzelg/FinalRingStickerSILVERSURFER.jpg[/img] [img]http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w266/worzelg/FinalRingStickerWorzel2-1.jpg[/img] |

Just a quick reminder guys!
Can everyone update the list when they have paid the deposit to the hotel please? If I remember correctly, it had to be paid by March 2nd. So if you have not yet paid the 50% deposit requested, you need to do so quickly, as March 2nd is MONDAY!!! Cheers guys Worzel |

Here are the payment details just in case anyone has lost there's.
![]() The price includes breakfast. I am sorry, but I do not take any credit or direct debit cards, only switch or Maestro. To guarantee your reservation, please pay a 50% deposit on to one of the following accounts by the 2nd March 2009, stating your name and date of stay at the Hotel. 20% of which is non refundable. The rest of the deposit, 30%, will not be refunded if the booking is cancelled within 1 calender month of the date of your stay. If we do not receive your deposit before the above given date, we will not be able to uphold your reservation. Please do not send Euro cheques. The exchange rate is horrendous! There are no charges to park your car in front of the hotel. We have plenty of secure parking space for your bikes, free of charge. GPS Hotel co-ordinates; N 50° 11´ 28.8” E 007° 01´ 01.8” A sterling cheque to; Mrs. Jacqueline Miller, 26, Broom Crescent, Tarvin, Nr. Chester, CH3 8HA, England. Looking forward to meeting you soon. Kind regards Jacqueline Miller Edited by Worzel to remove Jacquelines bank details from a public forum! Can't be too safe

We had such a grin with the radios in Lille!
There was one set of traffic lights coming out of Brugge that was letting 3-4 cars through. Thanks to the radio, we made sure that the lead car held at the lights and then bam! What we must have looked like to the locals flying off from those lights! They do add something to it for sure. Especially when everyone gets all "Convoy" ![]() ![]() |
