    This coming weekend also:
    Friday to Sunday 3 to 5 June 2016: Classic World Bodensee in Friedrichshafen, Germany, other side of Lake Constance. Very easy to reach if coming from Zurich area: Drive to Konstanz and take ferry to Meersburg and then drive only few minutes to Friedrichshafen (Zeppelin Airport). Always a great show, lots of activities.

    Also: Sunday, 5 June 2016:
    OSMT Oldtimer Sunday Morning Treff at the Stierenstallungen in Zug.
    Classic car Meeting, always a few Ferraris there as well. Starts around 9.30 am. Free for the public.

    All we need is finally a bit better weather!

    Enjoy your trip!

    Thanks Markus for the update. I still have your run penciled into my schedule, I'll keep an eye out on the weather. Rained big time in Bern and Interlaken today. To put a face behind the name...

    I am still skeptical about the weather but it would be great meeting you this Sunday morning!

    Tomorrow (Friday) will be pretty much the only day in the foreseeable future where it's worth taking the stallion out of the stable :(

    Today I went to the preview of Reinhard Schmidlin's Oldtimer Galerie Auction which will be held Saturday 11th June 2016 at the Dolder Ice Rink in Zurich, ahead of next Sunday's Dolder Classic. There are six Ferraris available at this auction: a red 246 GT, a red 246 GTS, a red 308 GT4, a white 330 GT 2+2 with non-matching engine, a 250 GTE 2+2 and an F40 with a lot of strange metal in the engine compartment. Here are some pix of this afternoon. Please note that this is not meant as PR for the auction and I do not have any affiliation with the auction company and organizers.

    many thanks for the nice pics!
    curious to see, whether someone will be interested in a "white 330 GT 2+2 with non-matching engine"! ...

    Unfortunately you are right, Tom!

    It’s not easy to postpone our tour from the upcoming Sunday on such a sunny day as today. But the weather forecast for Sunday is too bad and there is a significant risk of wet roads with less fun to drive.

    Who is in for Sunday in a week, 19th of June?

    Unfortunately I cannot. I will be attending the FCA Nationals in Columbus, OH, that same weekend. Will keep my fingers crossed for you (weatherwise!) on the 19th.

    Too bad, Marcel. I guess your "season" has just started and now you will be more outside than inside of Switzerland…

    Suggest you contact the organizers directly.
    As of last week they were still desperately looking for cars and contacted me to find good cars. However, I cannot attend as I will be in USA that same date.

    Hoping for good weather for our tour des alpes on Monday, 4th of July. We did choose a Monday instead of a weekend day to avoid campers and bikers.

    Who is in?

    Stefano (F430giallomodena): Will you join us in Wassen at 9.30 (same place as last time)?
    Barabba, will you join us as well?
    I assume Marcel Massini is fully booked and outside of Switzerland these times?

    Hope to see many of you
