One of these times is now, as I prepare to stand down from my 17 years’ involvement with the Council and the last 10 years as its Chairman. Along the way there have been many memorable moments. These include events such as the IAA in Frankfurt, Techno Clas- sica, the Mille Miglia, the Villa D’Este Concorso, and of course BMW Motorrad Days. And I think not just of the events, but often the drives to get there. Be it through the scenery of Bavaria and northern Italy, across Death Valley, along the coast near Cape Town or the pristine beauty of New Zealand’s South Island. Events and Council meetings themselves invoke many fond memories, from a unique dinner on the 50 yard line in the Skydome in Toronto, to a boisterous beer or three in the beer tents at several Oktoberfests in Munich. But one factor remained constant, wherever I was, and whatever I was doing, I was sharing the ex- perience with BMW friends. I have always said clubs are not formed by cars or motorcycles, but by people – passionate and enthusiastic BMW owners. I have had the pleasure of meeting numerous members from clubs throughout the world as well as from the BMW corporate family.

Munich, the largest city in Bavaria, is both a cultural hub (as the center of Oktoberfest) and the economic engine/high-tech center of Germany. The city boasts an advanced public transportation network and world- renowned infrastructure (see typical U-bahn below). VISIT THE ROYAL PALACE Numerous cultural activities are available in the City Centre of Munich, including the Royal Palace. First constructed in 1385, the Royal Palace is the largest city palace in Germany and was formerly home to Bavarian monarchs. It was rebuilt after being damaged during World War II, when 88% of the buildings in Munich’s City Centre were destroyed.
