All started just ten years ago. At that time, there were already clubs gathering of the owners of BMW motor bikes, but these clubs had a more local or regional vocation. Good number of them exist besides always. In 1991, under the impulse of the importer BMW France, seven founder members are grouped to create a BMW club with national structure. Its goal was mainly to give a national scale to this new association. Moreover, they set a preoccupation with a representation of the family BMW Frenchwoman near the other official clubs through Europe. At the time of the first years, the club was devoted only to only one activity, that to organize an International Gathering, the first weekend of July. The remainder of the year, a “sheet of connection” ensured the cohesion of the unit… It is at this time that arrived the current drafting of Eureka which gave fresh impulse to this bulletin of connection. Then, little by little, some of its members started to be satisfied more with only one annual meeting. There was as well pleasure to find itself as it was definitely impossible to have patience 365 days! “The Four Seasons appeared then Round”, left abstract meeting based mainly on Island-of-France and proceeding over one Sunday. Little by little, the success of this formula confirmed the need for developing the activities to officially propose other activities throughout the year. The fold was taken, the number of the appointments suggested was growing to reach the level of these two last years, that is to say nearly ten occasions to find itself. Without making a rigorous list of it, here are some dates which marked the last years: * July 92, first gathering of the club in Lapalisse * May 93, voyage to Berlin with visit of the factory of Spandau * July 93, gathering in Colmar * July 94, gathering with Blaye (Of Bordeaux) * May 95, voyage to Munich with visit of the BMW sites * July 95, gathering with Cheverny with departure of Paris-Panama * July 96, gathering with Méaudre-in-Vercors * September 96, 1st Trophy max Persac * July 97, gathering with Moret-on-Loing (Seine-et-Marne) * May 98, gathering 75 years BMW motor bikes in Berlin * May 99, ventures in Morocco * June 99, gathering with Fleurac (Périgord) * August 99, Strolls Alpine * July 2000, European gathering Chamonix * August 2000, Nimes 2000 (between the Cevennes and the Camargue) June 2001, gathering with St Flour (Cantal) * August 2001, Strolls in Country Cathare (the Pyrenees) * November 2001, 10th Birthday of the Club * June 2002, international Salins gathering the Baths (the Jura) * August 2002, one week in Alsace * July 2003, voyage to Munich (80 years BMW Motorrad) * August 2003, Mounts of the Lyonese * May 2004, week in Corsican * August 2004, Transfered Of Gironde * June 2005, international gathering with Saint Julien Puy Lavèze (Auvergne)
