Christiaan Weytmans : "Hi, After getting home in the night from Monday to Tuesday, I needed a few days to land in normally life. I must tell you that I had an incredible experience in Greece, thanks to all of you. The intensity of the days: getting up so early, manage quickly everything that must be done to get a good start, the travelling by bus, the biking uphill, the fabulous sights, the fast descents, and than again: travelling, biking, looking around, descending, have a couple of beers, enjoy eating together and then exhausted fall in sleep; all that made the national meeting in Greece to a very pleasant vacation. Thanks to all of you. "

Michel Pierre : "Dear All, Thank you for making this biking trip unforgettable, at least as far as I'm concerned. Christiaan for your organisation skills. Bas for your driving and management skills. Achim for your stunning observation skills ans great sense of humour. Line for your unique mix of female and male. All the best to you, enjoy your biking time with a lot of bigs., + 1. Destination 2. Accommodation 3. Roadbook 4. Variety of bigs (seaside, green and cultural bigs) - 1. Changing Athens to Thessaloniki as final destination. For those who had already booked their flight it involved extra cost for another flight or leaving the group one day earlier to move to Athens. 2. Some big descriptions are not correct. I'm willing to send gpx-files to have them corrected. 3. The transfer between Igoumenitsa and Gastouna was too long especially the second leg (Velouchi-Gastouni) My personal top 3: Langada Pass, Megalo Papingo and Lailas Regards."

Bas Nieuwenhuis : "Unforgettable indeed. It was and is a great pleasure to get to know you all, and I look forward to a next big event. Just to let you know, according to my Garmin and math, I made 1036 km and 27.273 meters of altitude in 21 BIGs. Not bad Knipogende emoticon. It was with melancholy that I sat in my office today, reliving some good memories of an improbable adventure, trying to pick up the pieces of normal life... All the best from Groningen, flat and windy as ever, Bas Unvergesslich tatsaechlich. Es war und isst ein grosses Vergnuegen Ihn allen kennen zu lernen, and Ich freue mich auf das naechste big event. Fur Eurere Informationen, mein Garmin und Excel erzaehlen mir dass Ich 1036 km und 27.273 Hoehenmesser gemacht habe in 21 BIGs. Nicht schlecht Knipogende emoticon. Es war mit ein Gefuehl von Melancholie dass Ich heute im Buro war, die gute Erinnerungen geniessend dieses unwarscheinliches Abenteurs, versuchend das normale Leben wieder an zu fangen... Alles gute von Groningen, flach und windig wie immer"
