International Turbo meeting 2012 in Switzerland

Post by Theo CH »

Hi all,

our next meeting is in Switzerland ! Please don't laugh about the translation - its made by me. (Web) master Udo says its good enough - until now no one from the other side of the canal came to visit us. I' ve told him not to be that sure! Please! :beer
If someone will visit us, you can go to my place here on Thursday and on Friday we can ride together to Switzerland.

They don't like

Germans
Britains
Americans
Croatians
Turks
Albanians .......
Motorbikes (swiss: Töff) with low tyre profile (min. 1.6mm)
they like: people with money - no matter from where they come and from where the money comes.... :popcorn
and they like women from Thailand :bananasex
Okay- Switzerland is extreme expensive, but you can live there very good and very safe (if you own enough money).#

They like cars and bikes with an huge amount of power to reach the speed limit of 80 km/h :rofl:
Do not drive too fast on the roads - lots of speed controls. Nevertheless it is possible to have a lot of fun on the pass roads if you have a swiss biker who shows you how and where to go.

Nah, cant make it, will be in Antibes/Monaco that weekend.
I will be coming back thru Switzerland about a week later, but then I probably wouldnt be welcome on my ZZR1100.

Thank you for the pictures, it seems to be a very pleasant journey.

Do you know if there is a similar meeting planned in 2013 ?

Hi,

It seems to be too far for me ( i am located in Montpellier in the south of France), another time perhaps. Thanks
