International Boss Hoss Meeting Pullman City 2020

[Zepman]

Hi all,

More relevant to the Europeans, but of course all are welcome, this year things are different, very different.

I was looking forward to meeting old friends and a good long ride across France, Belgium and Germany but I see that although Germany are lifting some restrictions of their lockdown, I read that "mass gatherings" are banned until after Aug 31. I also have to factor in France and Belgium...

I expect that the BH meet is in the mass gathering class. So I am awaiting confirmation from the news channels and pullman City before cancelling all my travel plans there.



I would normally say safe riding but we aren't allowed out

Hi, Zepman,

I have been at the Pullman City treffen in
2005, 2007 and 2011. I am hoping to attend
the treffen in 2021.
Be safe, and I hope the gathering CAN
happen this year(2020).

No final decision at this time.
Our Government leaves the definition of a mass gathering to the states; in this case the state of Saxonia-Anhalt.
So there is still a little hope but in my opinon it is very little.....its hard to imagine to do the "social distancing" in PullmanCity....

Puff Bill,
looking forward to seeing you again next year

Hi Peter & Bill,

Yes, it will be difficult predicting the position of each country, state, region etc. In France it would be Pas de Calais, Picardy then Belgium's Wallonia then Nordhin-Westfalen, Hessen, Thuringen and Anhalt. Phew!, a beaurocratic nightmare and perfect timing for when the post-lockdown "second wave" of infections will be making their mark.

You are so right about social distancing in Pullman City, I can't conceive that working.

At least I have my route all planned and hotels chosen sothat I can slot them into 2021. See you there in '21 for a double party. And Peter, give my best wishes to 'Bina from Das Englander.

Stay safe
