Holland in 35 minutes… (the movie)

Well, sort of.



Last Saturday we joined (as always) the annual Spring Pancake Meet.
And that’s just to title a tour with a few lads in a more or less quiet part of the country, always early April, and always ending having pancake in a little pancake restaurant in historic Buren



The movie : the best quality : full screen / 1080p HD



And a few pictures :





This time : 15 bikes and 21 persons.



An impression


…us ; and waiting for the things to come…



...BMW in almost all flavours…

[RoLoo]

…pancakes ; always a party… (yeah…, right…)





And believe it or not ; but someone ‘complained’ about me probably enjoying a scary way of riding my RT…








…well…, maybe…, but I myself didn’t noticed it…





see you at the old pancake restaurant in Buren

Well, if someone doesn't put the flag up in the sportboxer or K topic on M-F, there's a good chance I will miss it. Too busy and too little time to sift through every topic to see if something is going on.

Yawn - does not look that exciting or am I missing something significant???

It's the real thing - the EU is so densely populated compared to the midwest where I live.

Yes, you do... you are missing one of the most essential things about riding:

...that riding a bike is often more than just going as fast as you can or through the most gnarly twisties... it is about getting together with friends and explore or just ride together, involving your better halfs... if you have one.

While there is a time for everything, this seems to have been the time for doing just that.

Funny, this thread. I was in curacao for my honeymoon last summer, it's one of the dutch antilles. Our penultimate day there we visited a dutch pancake place and OMG those are some of the best things I have ever eaten. My wife and I desperately want to know how to make them.

...well, for example you missed the scenery...
...OK, not exciting, I know...

...but that's what's like over here...

...as flat as you can get...
...people everywhere...
...a crazy amount of (anti...) speed bumps...
...once in a while a windmill...
...narrow dike roads...
...once in a while a horse...



...and even more speed limits than we can handle...

That just links to all kinds of American pan cakes.

This is the real deal though.

...well, that's what I call great !...

...finally we've got something we can brag about...

They're not just bigger, they taste a good deal different.
