Hi Nicolas, All,

Thumbs up for organizing this! :-) I will help with everything you need in
anyway I can!

I'm at a client at the moment and all social-network related stuff is
blocked so I can't even plan the meetup ;-) That reminds me: we have one
tonight in Antwerp!

I will also try to make on the 25th but chances are slim because me and
Jorieke are moving parttime to Mali and I will probably not be in Belgium
at that time. I did submit the survey because it seemed to be about both
organizing (help) and attending.

Met vriendelijke groeten,
Best regards,

Ben Abelshausen

Antwerp ;-)

Dear all,

I have added some info in the wiki about the proposal :
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Activities#Mapping_party_in_Brussels_-_Saturday_25_April_2015.2C_9h_till_13h

Do not hesitate to add ideas and yourself on the program. We need to 
have enough experienced mappers to teach and accompany the new mappers. 
We also need to have Flemisch, French and English speakers, as I expect 
and would like to have visitors speaking at least these 3 languages.


Yes, any help with the setup of a meetup is welcome. I'll see Ben on 
Monday in Namur and talk with him.


I hope to see you Ivo,

THanks

NP

Top! I would be interested to join. Please propose a date and location
in the near future (3-4 weeks horizon)

You might contact Ben Abelshausen to assist you in getting the news out.
There were some Meetups the last months that he successfully organised.

 indeed. As a daily cyclist, I encounter many such situations. 
 
 I am willing to organize soon a cycling map day in Brussels to improve
 the Brussels cycling map and spot such locations that need attention.
 Who would be willing to participate ? 
 
 have a good day,

I'm confident this will become another 'belgenmop' in The
Netherlands...


I think the belgenmop will be that all belgian cyclists are blind.
Seriously, after seeing him fall 3 times I got the message: don't be 
blind and ride a bicycle. Look where you're going.


Bicycleinfrastructure seems bad there (and is, even in Limburg which 
purports to be _the_ cyclearea of Belgium) but I see no difference with 
Germany.

And I've never bumped into anything there.
In some ways it is even better then in the Netherlands. The major 
obstacles over here are the other cyclists and they are a lot more 
unpredictable than stationary objects.

Lang geleden dat ik zo'n belachelijk filmke had gezien. Als alle 
Brusselse fietsers zo stom waren als hier wordt voorgesteld zou ik 
voorstander zijn om fietsen in de stad absoluut en totaal te verbieden, 
tot nut van 't gemeen. Gelukkig weet ik wel beter.


Wat denkt men toch te bereiken op deze manier? Ik vind het enkel 
contraproductief.


Verder zijn het niet alleen de fietsers die van de overheid - in Brussel 
en elders - gekke situaties voorgeschoteld krijgen. Wanneer een 
bekwaamheidsdiploma voor planners en architecten van openbare 
infrastructuur? Met periodieke evaluatie?

Het is natuurlijk bedoeld om wat misstanden aan te kaarten. 't Zal wel
opgelost geraken.

Helemaal te gek vond ik dat hij blijkbaar z'n fiets over dat hek moest
tillen. Cross in zhe Brousse L :-)
