Linux Beer Hike in Slovakia

Posted by timothy on from the staying-in-shape dept.

palfreman writes "The Linux Beer Hike is less than a month away. This year it is in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia, following last years success in County Clare, Ireland, and the 2001 event in Bouillon, Belgium. This year the dates are Saturday, August 9 to Sunday, August 17. There is also registration site and a members mailinglist. I'm driving from England, a 2400 mile round trip!"

    Phew... when I first read that headline I thought someone had raised the price of beer in Slovania. Not that I'm ever going to go to Slovania, but with globalization and stuff I worry about these things.

    To mainland Europe? Do you have an amphibious assault vehicle? And if so, do you take it out often? And if so, are you on a quest for global domination? I just happen to be the greatest criminal mind of our time...
