VBOA International Vauxhall-Bedford Meeting – Denmark 2011

The meeting will take place from June the 2nd to the 5th. The Meeting and accommodation will be on Lundø, a small village and the surrounding peninsular in north Jutland which overlooks the Limfjorden.

This is beautiful wooded lakeside holiday country which the Danes don’t normally tell outsiders about!

For those who want to come before June the 2nd and/or stay after June the 5th (some ferries do not operate daily)
we will help to arrange accommodation here on Lundø or wherever you wish in Denmark.

Itinerary

June the 2nd: We will visit Jesperhus Resort, which is a family owned company with an interesting history.
Throughout the years Jesperhus has developed from a small flower garden to the largest Flower Park in Northern Europe, www.jesperhus.dk
Lundø - Jesperhus = 35 km

June the 3rd: We will visit the nearest town, Skive, and park our cars by special arrangement on the Posthouse Square. The members of the Danish club and Krumtapperne (Danish classic car club) will watch your cars so you are free to go shopping or the Skive guides will show you Skive's many tourist attractions.
You can visit Skive Harbour or the Museum. www.visitskive.dk
Lundø - Skive = 18 km

June the 4th: Rally - The rally contains a small contest. The Route is beautiful and will show you typical Danish scenery but will also be full of surprises! We will eat lunch at a local brewery on the island of Fur (recently voted by the readers of a Danish paper as the most beautiful island in the country) in the Limfjord
www.furbryghus.dk         www.fursund.dk
The whole route = 120 km

June the 5th: We are happy to have you in Denmark this day because June the 5th is our National Day and always a holiday. A few years ago it also became the day of all historical vehicles.
We will visit Spøttrup Castle to join a big classic car rally. Spøttrup Castle in Salling is Denmark’s most well preserved medieval castle. The Castle oozes medieval charm like nowhere else in Denmark. The museum offers numerous activities, such as evocations, displays and markets. The many activities contribute to making Spøttrup Castle an exciting place to visit. Welcome to the middle ages!! www.spottrupborg.dk
