Who's up for coming to Holland next year for the Dutchlions rally, which Baz, Heath, Alan & me went to, we had a brilliant time, the Dutch are really warm friendly people, all speak perfect English. Although it cost £130 for ferry (cheaper if you go by day crossing, because at night you must have a cabin) but for campsite, party til the last one leaves both nights, Breakfast, Tea & Coffee, BBQ Saturday, arrival pack, maps, stickers & Patch only 20 Euros! AND Beer on tap for 1 Euro for just under a pint, which was available all day & night, The campsite is only 30 miles from Hook of Holland,in a nice little village with supermarket, Chinese takeaway, petrol station and swimming pool. Ive put it on here now so you have all year to save up for it, if you do go you will not be disappointed!
The rideout around Rotterdam on Saturday was Hilarious the Dutch blokes were just stopping in front of fast moving traffic and stopping them so the rideout didnt get broken up, going through red lights, going up & along crowded pavements, along cycle paths it was like something out of Italian job and it was all recorded on video.

im in but will be trav by bretta so may leave early as not to stop the full throttle vespa guys

We will go as fast as the slowest scooter RT, besides Richard S will probably be with us next year! The Rideout around Rotterdam is now on youtube, type in 'Dutchlions Rotterdam'.

Hearing how good it was this year sounds like a must for next year, ill have to save all me pennies and hang on to my euros.
I shall only be going for the cheap beer though, i figure that on a pint to rally basis including the ferry I shall save approximately £ 45 by going, so it will actually be cheaper than staying at home anyway, so yeah count me in. perhaps they will do a block booking discount if you have 10 or so

The only real expense is the Ferry, but once you get there breakfast Tea & Coffee, Saturday BBQ are all in with the 20 Euro camping fee, and draught Beer 1 Euro per half litre you cant afford not to drink it! it would be great if we had a big turnout for this one, The Rotterdam Rideout is now on Youtube type in Dutchlions Rotterdam and it should come up, some of the Dutchlions are coming over for Mersea,(3 of them on Vespa 50's!)told them they can set tents up where we are, they are a good bunch and up for a party.
