    Welcome to F-Chat!

    Would be great to see you on one of our tours as a guest! To participate on more than one tour you have to be a member and pay a (reasonable) club fee.

    I will send you a PM with more details.

    Hope to see you soon

    I just wanted to send you a PM. Since you are a new member you cannot receive/send PMs until you have a higher post count. So here comes what I was writing to you (in German language, sorry…):

    Hallo CoreForce

    I hoffe, dass Deutsch OK ist. Und sonst einfach melden, dann schreibe ich auf Englisch.

    Wir sind ein kleiner Club mit momentan 12 Mitgliedern. Wenn Du willst, dann schicke mir doch Deine Mailadresse (als Antwort auf diese PM oder direkt an [email protected]). Ich habe heute Nachmittag soeben die Einladung für die Schwarzwald-Tour vom 17.4.2016 verschickt. Dann kann ich Dir diese auch zukommen lassen mit allen Details.

    Es würde mich sehr freuen, Dich an unseren Touren dabei zu haben!

    Herzliche Grüsse und hoffentlich bis bald

    Markus

    Good to hear. I plan to return from the Mille Miglia on the 23rd.
    The last time I had to take the tunnel.
    The 1 mile traffic jam before the tunnel in a car with F1 made me a little nerveous.

    I would caution to still check the road conditions at these dates. The pass is at 2094m. Most likely drivable but it can still snow or be icy.

    Hi all. I am going to Zurich and then down towards Lauterbrunnen and Interlaken from the end of May into early June. Is there any Ferrari activities going on in the region? Thanks

    Ferrari Club of Switzerland has a meeting in that region on 06/04-05, but I gather it is reserved to members. Maybe if you ask nicely, they will disclose their program:

    Ferrari Meeting Thunersee / 14ème assemblée générale ? Ferrari Club Switzerland

    Otherwise, the monthly sunday classic meeting in Zug is taking place on June 5, a 90 minute drive from Interlaken, but quite scenic, whether you take the Brunig Pass or if the Sustenpass opens earier than planned.
    Oldtimer Treffen Zug, OSMT Zug
    The June edition is devoted to 911s but there are always classic Ferraris in attendance.
    Some pictures here to give you an idea: Asphalte.ch ? Afficher le sujet - Oldtimer Sunday Morning Treffen - Zug

    I will be visiting Switz for the first time June 2nd to 13th. It would be cool to meet Intl Fchatters but I will be in Geneva on the 4th. I Google mapped your routes and was curious where you all are coming from. Lucerne looks like the closest, largest city.

    Stefano – Sounds interesting! Unfortunately I cannot participate since my business (and our Ferrari Drivers Club) is keeping me quite busy. Sorry!

    Hope to see you soon again

    Todd – Great to have you here in Switzerland. Are you taking your Ferrari with you?

    Our Ferrari Drivers Club (Ferrari Driver Club) has a tour on June, 12th. We will start somewhere around the city of Zurich and drive some nice curvy roads here. Let me know if you want to join us (the tour will only take place if the weather is fine and the roads are dry).

    Markus

    PS: There are some other cities besides Geneva and Lucerne: Berne, Zurich, Basel, St. Gallen, Zug, … Maybe you also want to visit mountain Jungfrau (quite expensive).

    Hi Markus. I won't have my Ferrari over there:(. The plan is Geneva, Lauterbrunnen and Zurich, with a few side trips to Gruyeres, Bern, Luzerne and Interlaken. Wife and I will be in Zurich on the 12th, just chilling out since we fly out on the 13th. Is it rainy in June? You mention that the gathering will happen, weather permitting. I read ave temps in June as 70 F high and 50 F low.

    Todd – That sounds like a nice trip!
    50 -70 F is rather on the cold side. These may be average temperatures for day and night. Usually it is between 70 and 86 F during the day. Weather is quite changing here. So nobody knows if it will be raining or if the sun will be shining. But there should be more sun than rain in June here.
    Note: If you go to the mountains the temperatures will be much lower.

    I wish you a nice trip!

    Markus
