VUNIC at the Nurburgring

CR&S dealer and VUNIC member, Oliver Thiel offered his wide track experience to support VUNIC and organize a VUN track test at the Nurburgring on August 19th & 20th (that's less than 3-weeks away).

If some VUNIC members would like to try their VUN on the world famous Nurburgring's "Green Hell" track with 20,832Km of crazy bends and up-and-down, then contact Oliver. He will be there to support VUNICs during this challenging experience.

The Nürburgring, Nordschleife is open on August, 19 from 17:45 to 19:30 and on August, 20 from 14:15 to 19:30. Oliver can assist with tickets for these two days. A package including hotel at Ringwerk (with museum, cart racing, lunch, etc) is also possible.

Club VUNIC Hit the Dolomites

Last Saturday, members of the VUN International Club (VUNIC) met at Bassano del Grappa to help celebrate the 25th anniversary of Club Pompone (Italy's largest club dedicated to Italian motorcycles).

Passo Rolle - Dolomites

These are the stated objectives of the VUN International Club:

No snobbery. Lots of biking, lots of bends, fine locations and, at sunset when we stop, somewhere good to eat, a comfortable room, without spending more than necessary. The sole aim being to have fun amongst people with the same elective affinities.

Roberto Crepaldi - the summit at Monte Grappa

Roberto and his friends have been organizing motorcycle tours across Europe and North Africa since the mid 1990's. After the birth of the CR&S's VUN in 2007 this group was extended to include all VUN motorcycle owners. Now the trips regularly include owners from Italy, Germany, France and elsewhere.

CMM's Paolo Biraghi

Last Saturday's ride took us to the top of Monte Grappa, down to Pedavena to visit the CR&S exhibition at the Club Pompone meeting, then deep into the Dolomites for a lakeside lunch and across the wonderful mountain pass at San Martino. After Passo Rolle an aggressive ride across Passo Manghen on a tight B-road then back to Bassano for diner. A glass of grappa on the Ponte Vecchio and a walk around the old town completed a true day to remember.
