M.I.V.W - Valkenburg , Holland 19 Aug 2012

[Lewy]

After the succes of last years show (ok I blew my rad in Dunkirk, and Joe blew his h/gasket!!) it's time to re-visit one of Europes premium VW shows.

Anyone else up for it?

Just a heads-up for the boys (& girls) who went last year, the Tulip Inn in Leiden now charges 16Euro's for breakfast!

I'm debating this now. Spoke to a guy at castle combe yesterday and he said its very likely this is the last MIVW. Reason seemed to be due to main organiser falling ill. He seemed a reputable source for the info. He also reckoned if this show stops, the smaller shows will grow.

I'll be asking about and see if I can gather interest with the club down here. Think it would be awesome!

Looks good. Really think it will be a good weekend away.

Can you link me google map location, I'm a little confused. I've found a couple locations under the 2012 name, somewhere down south Holland and up near Leiden.

It's basically somewhere near Leiden! About 10 mins drive from the town centre. Either stay there, really cool chilled place or up the road in Amsterdam if that's more your bag, as it were.
