Cleaned, polished and checked, everything packed incl. tools and some spares. We're leaving in 20 minutes, looking forward to meeting you in Niederzissen. Weather looks promising

A save journey to all!

Another great day today in gloriously warm sunshine

There's 60 cars on the revised list with the dropouts removed but I know a Swedish TF and a Cologne group TF that aren't on the list but have been here both days making it at least 62 (5 of them V8's the rest F / TF )

[Mykel]

Okay, we've just returned home safely, it was a great weekend! Superb roads, breathtaking sights over the Rhine and Mosel rivers, and the weather was on our side, too - well mostly that is. Enjoying the company of around 100 fellow enthusiasts from different parts of Europe was great fun as well. As usual the MG spirit was proved when some minor or more serious technical problems, there were always people at hand to take care of the issue

Many thanks to all who made this fabulous weekend possible, first of all to Lutz and Jochen for their extensive preparation, and Klaus and all the supporters for their efforts. Another thank you goes to all the participants from all the different countries. The sheer number of cars was a magnificent sight and the company was even better!

Loads of photos have been taken, which we would like to share on the MGFIM web site. As soon as you have sorted out your memory cards, please send your favourite pics to me on michael{at}mgfim{dot}org, either as a zip-archive up to 20 MBytes, or as a link to a data storage service such as Dropbox. Please not as Facebook- or Google albums, as it is a real pita to download them from there one by one

See you again soon!
Michael

Great to see you Mykel and a super weekend

I can only echo Mykels thanks to Jochen and Lutz as well as to Klaus's MG Worms Stammtisch group (for leading the convoys) as well as to all those who took part

I hope everyone has safe journeys home and here's looking forward to MGFIM'15

Super, loved it, thanks Sergio

I thought you were travelling slowly up the hills to Walwig , we flew up there

[colintf]

Still amazed what a great job the organising team (Jochen, Lutz and MG Wirms with routes / convoys etc) did
Considering their event normally had 20 or so F/TFs and we had 3 times that number of cars I think that they did really really well
So Danke again from me, and to anyone involved that I missed out by mistake

[adrianclifford]

The same from Dawn and I too, thanks to our European friends also for the €156 raised for MacMillan through allowing Dave the Bear to travel with you.

[Pete & Lin]

A big big thank you from Lin & I especially for accepting us so easily into the MGFIM family

A very memorable holiday (in more ways then one )

Looking forward to our next European event

So glad that you both enjoyed it Pete and Lin

That's one of the great thing about the MG family is that new family members are very welcome
