Dynamo Day in Switzerland Hi , For all those who want to know how much power/torque their moose has in reality, I would reserve a 4 wheel dynamometer for a Saturday morning only for the moose drivers. After that ride quite comfortably 1-2 passes, and of course go to a cozy pub eat. Date I think will be in October. The price for the dynamometer is calculated according to the cars that appear. approx. 100-120 SFr.- Infos about the tuner (drives also Volvo ) ,test stand and location can be found at http://www.rpa.ch/ For those who have an interest, please register here or at Volvopower.de. Salute Mela

Hello,pooh had the idea today for a (m) MT photo tour GT. Does anyone want to? Where could this take place? What could be all the program (before dinner)? Of course, only anyone who can show a camera is allowed to participate. Since pooh was afraid to open a new post here, I have to do this unfortunately – as always. So: get your suggestions! Greetings Tom ps: Happy Easter to all of you!!!!

From XC-Fan came the idea to start an Isarkiselabhol-GT in the center of Upper Bavaria. The suggestion: Rustic barbecue on isarkieseln, so that the energy is fed right away. Although we don’t get really close to (or into) water with the moose, but on our own hooves that’s no problem. The oils don’t suggest the time: early September, in time for the Wies’n. Who would be interested? Who would like to organize the event several times a day? Program proposals: – 1. Ta g: Arrival – 1. Evening: Grillevent – Tags on it: EH course (day 1) – Evening: Beer garden visit with lunch – Tags on it: Plant tour at the white-blue car builder in Munich – Evening: Refreshment swing – depending on the weather Biergarten or Augustiner Brauerei – Tags on it: EH course (day 2) – Evening: Brewery tour – Tags on it: Breakfast / Departure Would be a slightly longer WE. What do you mean? (EH = first aid – of course special for moose drivers )

Hello @ all at the winter pass trip was mentioned one or the other time that one imagined a cruising over alpine passes. Starting from this and that the Alpenrace 06, the winter pass trip 07 and the Alpenrace 07 all take place mainly in the region of Bündnerland and Ticino, I thought about doing something completely different. I would imagine a real cruising along lakes and mountains. Enough time also counted for catering photos and maybe a small excursion with a mountain railway. I thought about the following route: On the 1st day about 9.00 meeting place somewhere in the Bern area. Drive to the largest local Volvo dealer (about 200 – 300 Volvos exhibited!) then further towards Bernese Oberland, along Lake Thun to Interlaken and then up to Beatenberg (longest village in Europe) at best with the mountain railway to the Niederhorn from where you have an incredibly fantastic view. Lunch. Down again. Continue on the other side of Lake Thun to Spiez and then through the Simmental to Schönried, Gstaad and further to the French part of Lake Neuchâtel. Dinner and stay somewhere in the area. The next day over the Mosses down into the Unterwallis. A piece along the Lake Geneva then through the Rebberge to Lake Neuchâtel. Along the Lake Neuchâtel (Jura side) continue around Lake Murten (Lunch) to m Bielersee (depending on time visit of the St.Petersinsel) along Bielersee and back to Bern. The route is only an approximate idea – details have to be clarified. Now I wanted to hear here if there is any interest for such a thing? If so, I would take care of a more detailed route. So, now let go ! Gruss Stephan

At the last MT meeting, Sweden’s tank introduced the preshclag to meet next time for roasting.

On January 31st, the Café Westend in Ganghofer Str. (approx. house number 50), between Georg-Fraundorfer-Platz, Kazmaierster. and Ridlerstr., would offer itself for a far beyond the borders of MT. SteveT6 could make a proposal for a time and then also take care of the sufficient places for us all Who would come along? ———– – TobiV70 – SteveT6 – ….. ———-

Hi together, on 01.03.06 I am for a few hours during the day in Saarbrücken. From the afternoon I might have time to visit one or the other. Perhaps Mini GT? I make a PN to the constantly beating Saarländer (sometimes ask if the Volvo first-aid kit is enough 😉 On the return trip to Fulda I can pass some elks – maybe there could also be something to do/arrange? Nano Nano! Torsten – the XC fan (if necessary we can also do this at the hotel in Saarb I’m still on a roadshow as a visitor. Topic “Network” with Rittal, Raritan, Netgear, Setec, APC, AVM, Kerpen, AverMedia, CaseLogic, Ansmann and Teclin. Maybe someone even has an interest in looting the hotel buffet with me? ;-))

Yesterday Christoph (Cubs) had the idea that you could do the same in Switzerland!SagaKahn is the magic word and makes connoisseurs’ mouths watery! ( anyway me ) Who doesn’t know it: AALLLEEESSS what you want to eat and drink and can a’la discount! It’s really all included, except spirits. So also beer, wine, coffee, appetizer, salads, riiiiesen buffets, cheese plates, desserts in all varieties … The highlight of it is to put together your plate as it suits you. In addition, a Spiess with about 30 different meats and crustaceans can be grilled itself. Experience pure gastronomy! So: Who wants to? And when? Greetings Kusi, goes now to spoon his soup
