You will find usefull information here about the international Kawasaki Turbo Meeting 2010 in the Hotel Forsthaus in Rieden in the Eifel/Germany.
This infopage is for the time being only for the the Year 2010, but eventually we will hold the rally here once more.
The meeting will take place from 28.-30. May 2010. It will take place in the Hotel Forsthaus in Rieden within the Eifel.
We have the whole house for ourselves on this weekend. The hotel has a nice patio, a saloon, camping ground, meadow and a small garage, just for the case that something should get broken...
We will send invitations via email to all known addresses of Turbo-drivers. So please, if you know someone who has no email address or is not yet registered within our drivers list, please show him this page, make a hardcopy for him, or tell him in which way you ever want...
