Drive thru Slovenia and visit to Akrapovič summer 2013???

[smellthebeans]

I have to change my attendance to TENATIVE with the cavieat there is a chance my work schedule will free up during this time allowing me to attend.

[Mr Kleen]

Dates 100% yet? Need to get my leave request in soon.

[Rikx1M]

just waiting for the green light from M Flight as we'd be riding in with them...let me put a bug in their ear....

[Swadeness]

Any updates on the dates and sched on this? I can take any time in June off but since these dates are tentative right at the end of June I need to find out what my return home date would be so I can put in for some leave.

[Rikx1M]

Okay there are some complications with our visit to Akra...we may or may not do it the same weekend as M Flight. I called Akrapovic today and they'll make a decision whether they can handle 30+ folks (M Flight and us).... That being said, I need to give them a rough estimate of our participants that could make it on 27-30 June....

Right now I have (please update your numbers)

1) Rikx1M (2)
2) Dackelone (?)
3) gs/E60/1m (?)
4) that 1 guy (?)
5) evolution 80 (?)
6) smellthebeans (maybe)
7) theoneman (?)
8) Mr.Kleen (?)
9) FOACAD (?)
10) Karussell (?)
11) ace11 (?)
12) josh135 (?)

Still a big fat TENATIVE...this falls right in the middle of planned training. We dont enjoy the rest of ya'lls liberal holiday schedule.

[Mr Kleen]

I'm in with 1 guest.

[Mr Kleen]

I'm going to go ahead and request the days off. My best friend will be visiting, if this falls through we'll just find something else to do. Maybe a road trip to visit the Ferrari and Lambo factories? Hmmm....

[Vienna///M]

I may join - what route are you guys planning to take to Slovenia?

[ace11]

cant make it after all... sorry guys..

[Mr Kleen]

I know this is an on-again-off-again thing, but if it doesn't happen we really should plan some other driving excursion. Maybe a Black Forest tour since we're going to drive through Austria for Stelvio 2.0?

Also, it would be nice to have some sort of coms. I'm all for buying a radio if it works with the rest of the group.

[Theoneman]

I am good for this. 27-30June right?

where will we be meeting up?

[smellthebeans]

on again?

Sticky?

[Mr Kleen]

I think it's off again.
Anyone up for an alternate trip?

I think this trip is off again too. I really can't take that many days off anyways, so count me out for this.


I am up for a weekend trip somewhere. ? Maybe in June or August, bc our Stelvio trip is on July 20th & 21st. Shall I throw a trip together?

[Rikx1M]

Sorry guys...I really wanted this to happen because Slovenia is an amazing country and having one of the world's leading exhaust manufacturers there added icing on the cake.

With 11hr days due to alternate work schedules plus losing up to 3hours a day commuting via bus, my kid graduating, lots of family visiting, packing/moving workcenter, my upcoming PCS to WI, my wife's PCS to England, and my daughter going to college in TX...well it's been a bit hectic and busy.

The way I see it, M Flight has the end of June sewed up, we've got Stelvio in July...what do you guys think about Labor day? Should we do a 4-day somewhere?

YES! I would be up for a trip somewhere(DE/Belgium/Austria/anywhere?) ALL together.

[Mr Kleen]

Not sure if I can make a Labor Day trip, I may have family visiting from the US.
