Vulcan Grey Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I'll be going to Mechelen for work. I will probably be there Sunday through Saturday. Not sure how much time I'll have, but it would be cool to meet some Belgian members! Quote Travis Vulcan Grey 89SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM Escape Posted March 3, 2015 Gold FFM Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I live close to Mechelen (well, everything is 'close' in Belgium...), so feel free to contact me if you want to meet for a beer.

Vulcan Grey Posted March 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Flights booked. I'll be arriving 8am Monday in Brussels, going to Mechelen, working all week possibly. And I leave Brussels at 11am on Saturday. Not sure where I'm staying yet. Quote Travis Vulcan Grey 89SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcan Grey Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Looks like I'll be staying at the Martin's Patershof in Mechelen. Quote Travis Vulcan Grey 89SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcan Grey Posted March 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 The Delirium cafe would be cool in Brussels!!! Need to figure out how to get there. If you guys were visiting Colorado, I'd take you to my favorite place, the Avery Brewing CO. They have some great beers there, super friendly staff, Belgian style beers, sour beers, rare beers!

bosbon_be Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Don't forget this one: http://www.alamortsubite.com Brussels is not an easy city to ride around in an Esprit. Heavy traffic, close racing (lol) red lights... With a car without PS, no abs, no rear vieuw,... I look to find some more rare places.

Gold FFM Escape Posted March 6, 2015 Gold FFM Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Brussels isn't too bad, when you're used to it. I take my Esprit to work there on a regular basis. Sure, dealing with traffic is easier from the Range Rover, but the red lights are more fun with the Esprit. :-) @Travis, Might I suggest Leuven as an alternative for Brussels? Many good bars and I find the atmpsphere more friendly and less touristy. I know a few nice places in Mechelen as well, and could pick you up if you want.

Vulcan Grey Posted March 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Filip, I'm up for whatever! Still not sure of my work schedule next week, waiting for itinerary from my co-workers in Mechelen. Quote Travis Vulcan Grey 89SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exploded Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Let me know when you come over. Although I'm travelling for work as well next week, still hope to meet you. And if you like beers there is a café very close to me which has always +400 different beers on stock ;-) Check the card :-) Edited March 6, 2015 by Exploded Quote Calypso Rose Rules the World!

Vulcan Grey Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I arrive Monday at 8am at the Brussels airport. Then I go into work on Tuesday in Mechelen. So Monday afternoon/evening might be a good time? Quote Travis Vulcan Grey 89SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosbon_be Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 We (Exploded & I) will come to the Hotel on monday evening. PM me your mobile number and we will text our ETA. I will wear a Lotus cap so you can recognise me. See you tomorrow, regards, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcan Grey Posted March 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Ok, sounds good. I'm getting on the plane in a few hours. I'll also be wearing a Lotus sport hat. Quote Travis Vulcan Grey 89SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
