The treffen will be held from 12-07 until 16-07-2023.

Hope to see a lot of you there.

Also there is a designer contest again to make an anniversary patch. The winner will have free entrance to the Anniversary Treffen, together with one passenger. This contest is open for all GWEF members. With your design, please pay attention not to use very thin lines, as they will be impossible to have on an embroidered patch.

In the same meeting Martin Reitstätter, interrep of the GWCA, was appointed as Honorary Life GWEF Member for all the work he has done for GWEF in the past 25 years. We congratulate him on this appointment!

Hi,

Because there are internal problems in the board of GWCN, a new board will be appointed at the members' meeting in June. Since there is not enough time left to organize a GWEF treffen, it was decided to cancel the Norwegian treffen for 2022.

GWEF Secretary

Hello

Unfortunately I have to announce that there will be no Treffen in Sweden in 2022.

The campsite we would have been at does not meet the commitment and we have not been able to find an alternative location.

We at the Goldwing club Sweden are sorry if this create problems for travel planning this year.

Hope that Europe becomes normal again from Covid and Ukraine crisis.

Stay safe and healthy

OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION
BOARD OF DIRECTORS GOLDWING ASOCIACIÓN DE ESPAÑA

On 02/11/2022, this Board of Directors, with each and every one of its members present, unanimously decided to CANCEL IN 2022 AND POSTPONE TO 2023, the XVII SPANISH TREFFEN, scheduled to be held in Gandia in May of this year.

The reasons that have led to this decision is that events in Europe continue to be canceled (due to issues related to the Pandemic caused by COVID-19, not finished yet), and that after having postponed our event for several years in a row, the campsite (establishment that houses the participants) has had to resort to guarantee its survival, to accept the requests that have been coming in this stage, still highly uncertain due to the evolution of the pandemic and the continuous changes in the sanitary recommendations and legal regarding capacity limitations and for the celebration of certain macro-events. This problem has caused the availability of places in the establishment to be very limited and insufficient and does not allow an optimal celebration of the event. There are no possible alternatives, on these dates, in similar businesses in the area or surroundings.

For the reasons stated above, the decision is:
CANCEL IN 2022 AND POSTPONE TO 2023, the XVII SPANISH TREFFEN
This communication serves to inform all partners and members of the G.W.E.F. and to the public in general.

In Cáceres on February 11th, 2022.

Juan María Serrano Pardo
CHAIRMAN
Goldwing Asociación de España

Dear friends, members, Gold Wing Clubs and supporters of our G.W.M.C.B.,

After internal consultation of our board and the official authorities, the international character of our Treffen and the existing Covid 19 measures in Belgium, the Belgian Board members have decided to cancel our International Treffen 2022.

Unfortunately, even with the momentary positive outlook towards the coming summer of 2022, it’s impossible for the Belgian Gold Wing Club to obtain de necessary permits and the additional manpower to organize the Treffen.

With this 3rd cancellation of our International Treffen, we as Gold Wing Motor Club Belgium also want to apologize to all members, member Clubs and all possible participants, but, as already indicated, we are unable to carry out the entire organisation under the rules (existing and coming) of the official authorities and all the different applicable regulations concerning the corona virus.

We hope that all our befriended Gold Wing Clubs will be able to organize their Treffen further this year.
We are looking forward to participate in their Treffen in 2022 and our organisation in 2023.

Stay safe and above all, stay healthy!

For the Board
Mark Vanderborght
Chairman Gold Wing Motor Club Belgium

Dear Friends,

It is with sadness that I have to inform you that GWOCI have very reluctantly decided to cancel our 2022 International Treffen. Recently we have become aware that our Treffen venue has not been open for a long time and we could not be assured of it's availability. In these uncertain times we cannot obtain an alternative venue. We have secured a site thatis suitable for a National Treffen on the same date but it does not meet our standard for a International event.

My best wishes to you all for 2022 and hopefully everyone else will have more luck than us and be able to hold a succesful Treffen.

Keep safe and well
Marian
GWOCI I.R.

In these times of negativity, finally some positive news.

As you all know, we had a foto contest for the most beautiful bikes within GWEF.

The committee has decided on the winners, who can participate for free in 4 international Treffens in 2022. Officially this was in 2021, but the current situation looks like a repeat of 2020, so it difficult to know if even 4 Treffens will be held this year. Therefore the committee has decided to move it to next year.

If you click on a a picture, you will get a  large format so you can see the details better.

The winners are:

GL1000: Eric Sterckx (GWOCI)

GL1100: Danny Nauwelaerts (GWMCB)

GL1200: Stojan Ilić (GWSLO)

GL1500: Dominique Debeyne (GWMCB)

GL1800: Serhii (Hooligan) Atanasov (GWCUA)

3-Wheel: Leif Lindwall (GWCS)

Hello GWEF Members,

Due to the fact that in 2020 the GWEF member clubs were not able to welcome you to one of the international treffens, GWEF decided to create a patch that you can buy to show you endured this crazy time together with all other GWEF members. This patch will be available for € 3.00 and can be ordered by contacting you Interrep. At the end of the year all orders will be counted and the patches will be made.

Here is an example of what it will look like:
