Goodevening everybody,

After heavy braincrushing and spilling out ideas we Belgians are going to organise a Belgian Event in respons to all the excellent ones we went to in the UK. We would be honoured to show a different side of Belgium to all of you and let you enjoy all the good stuff (I know, beer always springs to mind but there is more!).

Sounds good?
To discuss hotelroom prices we need to have a rough estimate who would like to join us. I know it's difficult but who's up for this?

We had some much fun on previous occasions we would like to return the favor

During Eurofest next year we should have flyers ready and will inform all clubs in Europe close to Belgium.

Greets!
Frederik
PS: DCB-12 stands for Delorean Club Belgium, but can also mean Delorean Convention Belgium. The 12 is a reference to our favorite car but also 2012...It works on so many levels...we thought about that one!

As mentioned in Luxembourg Frederik - yes I'm in! - although it will be a busy month after that, but sounds good!

Really is easy to get to as well - probably nearer than *a hotel in the UK* even for some UK people.

I am in for sure, my great grandfathers brother is buried in Flanders, I can finally make the trip!

road trip great following dan and arran not so great
ok who gives you know us we will probley come aswell life is to short

Tyson just push the right hand pedal down further and you'll keep up just fine.

hi
sounds brill id definitely be interested ive never been to belgium
ill mention it to the guys over here and see what they think, it would be nice to try and get a convoy for a big trip like that..

how far away is the euro tunnel port at calais?

best of luck with it any way

cheers
shane

Having done it now I can say the tunnel is really easy and quick - no faffing about and if you're lucky you just drive straight on. "Leper" is 1 hour from Calais, and most of that journey the French side is very nice - apart from the speed cameras, but Dan doesn't worry about them!

I had a relative on my mums side came from Leper, it was agreat aunt as I recall, she was of a very nervous disposition. every time we met her she would be in bit's

Nope and I won't worry about them until they change the law
