GROOT DANKIE VANAF DIE KAAP!
Hello Hans,
Ek
wil net graag namens Leon vir jou bedank, soos ek verstaan van Leon
was dit ‘n onvergeetlike belewenis, en hy het dit baie geniet! Hy
kan nie ophou praat oor die puik manier hoe jy dit hanteer het en
die organisasie van die hele ralley.
Ek
is so bly dat hy gegaan het, ek was redelik gekant teenoor die hele
ding en al sy moeite met sy V-Max “baby”, maar sien dat dit darem
alles die moeite werd was! Ek is so trots op hom dat hy ‘n prys
gewen het en 2de gekom het!
Nogmaals baie dankie dat jy dit moontlik gemaak het vir hul almal,
vir ‘n onvergeetlike naweek!
Hy
dink al klaar aan die volgende V-Max Ralley!! (Hierdie keer kom ek
saam!)
Groete
Gwen en Leon

Arrived home save and I am well rested now.
Not a very nice trip through the Transkei. Plenty dead animals and
two accidents.
I trust that all the other members arrived home
safely.
Just a few lines from Kristine and I regarding
your and Marlies input. I must say thanks again for a brilliant well
organized gathering. The new members that we spoke to really praised
you both for the event.
Chat soon
Cheers
John van Nieuwenhuizen

Thanks for Great Time
Hi
Hans
Thanks for the wonderful time we had at the Gathering with the VMAX
FAMILY, yes it truly is a family.
Annie and I have returned to work after our three-week holiday, but
for us the highlight was meeting so many of the Vmax family. We feel
like we know you all so much better now but it’s what we expected
and better as we are all so like minded in so many ways not just our
love of your VMax’s. I trust that all the members at the gathering
returned home safely.
I
hope you have given yourself a Platinum Certificate for the planning
and organization of the Gathering I am sure all the Others will
agree that you deserve it.
God
Bless and for now.
P.S.
I send you all the photos I took at the gathering so you can post it
on the web site.
Kind Regards
Steve

Hi
Hans
Also, please extend Caro and my thanks and appreciation to all
those who assisted us after our accident, including those who have
contacted us after the fact. It is at times like these that one is
reminded of the calibre of people at the Odyssey Rally. My leg has
healed rather quickly, but Caro took more of a knock and will only
be riding in about two weeks. Thank you one and all.
Looking forward to next year.

Morning Hans,
My name is Peter Wilson and i bumped into your club at the U Shaka
waterfront on the weekend. I am living in Dubai and will be for at
least two more years but bought a Vmax from a dealership in JHB just
before i left not ridden it much but am very happy with it, in the
past have always ridden the xt500 and TT600 so quite a change.
Have filled in the membership form and will be making the transfer
of monies by tomorrow.
Kind regards
Peter

RE: eNEWSLETTER No 100 - ( 001 ) (PMem) VMAX ODYSSEY 2010
Good
Morning Hans & Marlies Knop.
Thanks for the newsletter # 100. I want to say to you and Marlies
that this was my first VMAX rally and it will also not the last one.
I want to say to everybody who I met at the rally you are the
greatest family members I come across. I had a problem with my VMAX
clutch but in no time it was fixed by so many assistance. It is with
sadness to say goodbye to so many wonderful people and who had the
same passion for VMAX’s. I want to say a special thanks to Andre and
Linda Blignaut who actually force me to come along. I will become a
VMAX member shortly and will be proud to wear the beautifully VMAX
owners group Badge on my leathers.
Best Regards

Just read the
contents of the Newsletter for the 4 th time. I get goose bumps
reading the letters. Makes one think. Every one has a similar
content to write about. Well I look at it and think to myself
"That's why we all ride VMAX's" Like minded people think alike, Not
so??
I just wish
we could get more members to attend.
Cheers
John

Hi Hans.
Greetings to both you and Marlies and I trust that you are both
well.
I confirm my sponsorship for the 6th gathering will be R 6 000, and
that
it will be deposited shortly. Please look out for it in your bank
account.
The 5th gathering of the clan was - as expected, superb. There can
be
only one....VMax.
It is pleasing to see the words of praise coming through from the
members, and I wholeheartedly support their views of the 5th
gathering.
You are setting ever increasing standards, and the members are
responding accordingly. Very well done Hans. Rest assured that we
all
realise that whilst it may well be a labour of love, we also know
and
accept that it is hard graft. We sincerely appreciate all the effort
that you and Marlies, (and also the rest of the gang) have gone
through
to make the event so memorable for all of us.
Billy and I look forward to the next one.
VMaximus greetings.
Gerrit Dokter

Gerrit I am so
impressed .....you are really a man of your word.... and you
have given me ALL the Strength .... Motivation and Enthusiasm I need
for
organising our 2011 - 6th Gathering.
Hans Knop

AND THIS LETTER from a
visitor of USHAKA MARINE WORLD who happened to bump into our Maxes
on display and didn’t waste time to become a Member of our group ….!
