Midsummer Sunrisetour
Hello,
Midsummer Sunrisetour is a 540 km long (70% unpaved) dualsport tour in one day. Location; in the (north)east from the Netherlands Europe start;june 21, 5 am. The route is available as a GPS-track. starting in small(3-5) groups. At least one rider per group have to have a GPS. There's a limited # off riders.(GPS-riders first) It cost nothing and camping is free at my place. Freek |
Hello Freek, excuse me for being a bit thick but i,m not sure what your saying.
Its a race, off road, between teams of riders one of whom has GPS ? Are you taking part? How competative is it? |
Bonjour,
No, it's not a race and it's not competative. I organize it and take part. The route is only available as a GPS-track, so at least one rider per group have to have a GPS. So you're welcome with or without a GPS The unpaved parts are (legal)farm and forest roads. Freek |
Freek,
I would love to come and join in. How much experience do you need? Don't have years of experience and 500+km off road in one day seems a lot to me if you're not that experienced. But I'll be happy to get a Belgian delegation together and come play. Fireboomer. ------------------ http://users.pandora.be/pieter.maes2/ |
The 70% unpaved roads are easy to drive.
No 'enduro-tracks'. But sure it is a challenge to drive 500-550 km in one day. That's why we start at 5 am on the longest day. |

Well I dont have a GPS but I guess if a team will have me and my Aprillia then i,m seriously interested. It could be good practise for Russian tracks...Keep me informed please this sounds like a plan. |
right now I have 10 places available.
So drop me a mail when your sure you want to come. I have to know what range you have with your fuel tank and I drop you in a group with a GPS. You can camp here or stay in my logcabin. Freek |
Blackjack,
Off course you can join in. But don't expect me to be the expert. My favorite way of learning: Trial and error... so ;-)))) Fireboomer. ------------------ http://users.pandora.be/pieter.maes2/ |

I've send you an e-mail 2 days agoo,
Did you received it? Your welcome anyway. Freek |
This sounds great. However all my holidays are booked up for this year. Definately count me in for 2004 though.
Cheers Gibbo. |
i'd love to join you if you're doing it next year - can't do this year. does the bike have to be an off-roader?
if you're making a list for next year, include me on it! simon |
It's meant for bikes like KTM adventure, Tenere, GS etc. , but that's not an iron rule.
The 540 km has grown to 584 km. Maybe next year a two day's 800 km trip. Freek |
Any update on how this event went? Still keen for next year.
Cheers. |
