Are any of you from the UK (in addition to Miles Kingsbury of course who is a presenter) planning to attend the above seminar?
I'm contemplating riding over in my QXS so would be interested in meeting up with any others travelling from Hoek to Dronten (hopefully- people who know the way as I got a bit lost on my last attempt!)
One question of importance though-- are the talks going to be in English??

i was thinking about it, but i don't know the way, nor do i have a device that could show me the way.  I have no idea whether the talks (apart from Miles' and Kevin? from the USA I assume) will be in English.

Thanks Lee-of course I've ridden the route as well although not in an efficient way (BillBJ and I got lost a number of times coming back from CV!)
I'm thinking of trying the tent option this time (assuming the weather doesn't get any worse) as I want to use this as a "tester" for the European tour next year-- haven't slept in a tent for decades but do have the gear.

If I come to the seminar I would arrive at Hoek on an overnight crossing from Harwich so would need to arrange a meeting point in/around Rotterdam with you and whoever else decides to come?

Message from Ymte today- apparently the presentations will be in English-- the Dutch are already complaining about it! However on Friday night the invited singer will sing in German! I'll probably go- any others?

I'd love to here more about it. Perhaps there'll be time at Rhyl.
