I live about 130 kilometers from the meeting/camping site and would like to bring French speaking "motard" friends who may not speak much English. Any idea how many French speaking folks will be coming? As for myself I plan to come, with good vibrations...

Kind regards,

Douglas

Hello,

Good to hear from you, and hope your motard friends are adventurers also. We are very much promoting a french speaking aspect to this meeting, and there are certainly some bi-lingual HUBBers coming along. We will also be having presentations in both French and English. If you have a tale to tell and a presentation you would like to give, please let us know, otherwise just come along and enjoy.

Hi Douglas,
I was approached at HUBB UK to come to the MiniHUBB in France to promote my company. I speak French and I will have native French staff available at my trade stand.

So yes, bring your friends please:clap:

Not long to go now!
 
Things are moving along, and not long to go now.

Firstly a request for all those who have not registered, to please do it NOW. We need this information as soon as possible. The registration links are at the bottom of the meeting announcement page.

Our pleasure to confirm also we have some interesting talks lined up for the Saturday afternoon/evening, which include:-

1. Travelling on a limited budget. ( Far East). In English.

2. Crossing Borders. ( Do's Dont's and paperwork!). In French and/or English.

3. The Faristan Project. A very interesting initiative starting in May 2015, linking UNESCO associated educational establishements across the globe and travelling by motorcycle. In French and/or English.

Perhaps the most delicious thought for the event so far is tasting a good slice of the wonderful Neufchatel cheese that OTRA might be bringing with him like he did last year, it was one of the event highlights!

We're getting organised, so get yourselves together and sign up as soon as possible. If anyone else would like to give a talk/ demonstration, please use the appropriate registration link on the announcement page. :thumbup1:

Hi Pongo !

We are some people from Catalonia (Spain) and we will come to the meeting in France.
Three of us are rgistered some days ago (Panotxa, Siso and Ramon) but it will be some more people, sure.
Last month we spend two days at HUBBUK and we liked, so we want to assist to this mini event that is close to home (about 500 kms.)
We have a forum (rodem.cat) focused on motorcycle trips and we would like to come and meet and speak with others travellers.
Our knowledge of English and French are not very good but we hope we can understand :)

Greetings !
