November drive thru the "Fränkische Schweiz" ?

Hi Guys,

Some of the guys at the 1er forum (the German one series guys) want to know IF there is interest in a fall time drive thru "litle swiss" aka: Fränkische Schweiz. This is the area between Bamberg/Bayreuth/Graf-Vilseck area. It would make for a nice drive.

Who all is interested? I know Nick and myself are up for it! Probably Oli too.

The drive would be sometime next month in November.

Edit! I screwed up the date for this event. It will be on Sunday Nov 28th, 2010.

Ok, guys... I talked it over with the 1er Forum gang... at the Burger King yesterday. We set the date for Sunday Nov 28th, 2010 for our little drive in the Fränkische Schweiz, aka "Little Swiss".

Fränkische Schweiz is the German (Bayern) State Park that encompasses the Bamberg/Bayreuth/Nuernberg area.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_...rland_(Germany)

Last time we started off in Buttenheim (just South of BA) and drove about 120 kms thru lots of curvy and twisty roads. We will probably stop somehwere for a nice lunch. And have plenty of photo ops.

Clear your calendar. I hope for us to have a few US spec one series & three's to mingle with our German friends. Feel free to invite friends with other bimmers.

As soon as I know more details - I will post them. But our concensus was that on a Sunday there would be less traffic and more fun for "us" drivers. So Sunday Nov 28th is our date!

Some photos from the last event...




Here is the link to the trip we had a few months back.

You can ride with me buddy! And... IF I drive too fast... Oli doesn't exceed 80 kph in his "tune'd" 120d!!! You can ride with him. lol



But seriously... IF you ever come over here... let me know. I wouldn't mind meeting you and helping you enjoy a nice German stay.

I think we will all meet up at 11am on Sunday Nov 28th, 2010.

Last time we all met at the Buttenheim park platz just off the autobahn. Its near where Levi Strause was born. They also make the Buttenheim Bier there. I will post the correct address - but this is close to it. Kellerstraße, 96155 Buttenheim Its just 10 kms South of Bamberg. Again I am not sure IF this will be where we will meet. Just giving you a pre-heads up for the location we used last time.


The guys at the 1er Forum are still hashing things out. They really want to make a video of all of us driving around the Franken counrty side. lol I hope we can gather a large number of us 1addicts and Americans. Rick you should come on up and put your video skills to good use!

I will be sure to update this thread as the date nears 7 for the starting meeting place.

Btw... it looks like we will be meeting at Kellerstraße, in Buttenheim, just off the A73. 11am on Sunday Nov 28th! Butetnheim is just South of Bamberg (by two exits).

This will be the course we will drive.

Hi Guys,

We are still all set for Sunday's drive... It looks like it might be cold but dry - I hope.

We will be meeting at Kellerstraße, in Buttenheim, just off the autobahn A73. 11am on Sunday Nov 28th! Butetnheim is just South of Bamberg (by two exits). You might get there early at 10:30am if you want to chit chatt.

When you take the autobahn exit you drive not even 1km, take the 2nd left street/intersection - you will see the parkplatz with all the 1er's there.

The parkplatz (where we all will meet!) is just behind this Welcome sign...




Any Q's just PM me!

I hope to come and bring two additional 135i's and a 118d. If I make it i'm up for some dinner. If TUV would let these guys mod there cars more then they would understand why we don't like to commit (my clutch might be in any day and I will be on the lift for a day when that happens.)
