雷达兵：
我联系了德国朋友，他联系了柏林轮马组委会。无号参赛是不可能的。但有对远道而来的中国赛手，可能报到时临时注册，但不能保证得到参赛号，德国参赛者是绝对不可能临时给与注册的。
下面是他回复的邮件：

Hello John,
thanks for your mail.
I just returned from a 10 day vacation in Italy (without skating) this evening.
To your questions:
Berlin:
I skated once at the Berlin Marathon and from my experience it will not be possible to skate along the race route. This is a real big event with a few thousand skaters and more than 100.000 spectators along the route. Especially the last kilometers are completely cordonned. So there will be no space to skate there.
Your friends should better do not try to skate the race itself without a race number. This may cause serious trouble.
I had contact for other reasons to someone from the organizing team of the Berlin Marathon , may be there is a small chance for your friends to do a late enrollment there. Chances would be zero for German skaters, but may be there is a shimmer of hope for someone from far away like China. I can promise nothing, just have a try: Her email address is julia.seifert@scc-events.com

Munich:
Fortunately, on 11th and 12th of October I will be in Munich. So let's try to meet you and your skating friends. 12th of October is a Saturday, where I would have no work and therefore more time for you. I could arrange a skate tour in case of dry weather or a more traditional one in case it rains. Just let me know in what you and the other skaters are interested and during which hours you are available.

Best regards
Clemens

PS Are you aware that the famous beer festival "Octoberfest" in Munich runs from 21st of September to 6th of October?

随着赛事的临近，越来越感觉到兴奋，也感觉德国大赛组织者的耐心和流程上的细致。看了徐老师上面这条信息，我就给他们写了邮件，但没说明具体想参加几点的辅导。于是人家回信问我想参加哪个时段让我选，真的是尊重呀，太有感觉了！以下是他们的回复：

Hello Mr. Wang,
Thank you for your registration. I registered you for the course at 4pm. We will send you more information in the middle of September!
Best regards,
Saskia Geweke

他们的组织工作太体贴入微了。您看这两天的Newsletter了吗？
为了让参赛者取得最好成绩，比赛还有Guide（导赛）全程陪伴，指导你加入最合适的梯队，帮你看时间，掌握速度。例如你计划1小时30分完成，您跟着该梯队的导赛滑就可以，他按这个时间带领梯队完成比赛。你如果想1小时20分完成，也有引导这个梯队的导赛。这对于没有经验、没有编队的朋友真是太体贴了。
太好了。这次试试90-95分钟能不能完成。{:soso_e128:}

下面是克莱曼斯为我们安排的慕尼黑轮滑游。因为当天下午风哥一行要去机场返回香港，因此，我们北京小组四人可以跟着克莱曼斯“啤酒花园轮滑行”，刷慕尼黑的“鸟巢”1972奥运会场馆。

Hi John,

night train Berlin-Munich leaves late in the evening, so I propose the following tour:

Meet around noon at either "Deutsches Museum" or "Tierpark Hellabrunn". Both are in the top 5 list of Munich's touristical highlights. The first one is a museum for the history of technology, the latter one Munich's zoo. Each of them is worth a few hours visit in the morning.

From our meeting point we skate a similar route as I did in this year's 24skate with my daughter - the "four beergarden tour". One of them would be a good place for a lunch break. You can bring your own food, if you like, but not your own beer.

We could add a few kilometers and skate from the last beergarden either to Munich's football arena, which resembles slightly the "bird's nest" Olympic stadium in Beijing, or to the Olympic stadium and park from 1972, also a architectonical landmark. From both places the metro can bring us back to downtown.
Easy going with photo stops and beergarden break the tour may take ca. 4 hours.

These are just very rough sketches. I would need to work out the details depending on your preferences and on what you plan to visit on 11th of October. I am very flexible both meeting locaton wise or time wise - e.g. we could also skate in the morning.

Best regards
Clemens

哇，徐老师这个活动太刺激了，不但有国际友人陪同在慕尼黑轮滑，看样子还能享受到德国啤酒，一场普通的国际赛事，能让我们充分享受美食美景和友情。

这两天组委会已经将参赛确认和比赛号码发到报名者邮箱。请红枫联系雷达，索取你的报名确认函。今年报到手续很严格，必须出示这个确认函。报到后，还要在手腕上戴上一个不可解脱的防伪手环，比赛结束后才能解下这手环。{:soso_e128:}

乡下人和我的确认函已经发到我的邮箱，我打印。

我的参赛号码是T4618，“死溜要发” ！！！
乡下人的参赛号是T4619，“死溜要久”！！！

太好了，难道德国组委会也了解中国文化，给我们分配这样一组Lucky Number ? {:soso_e113:}{:soso_e113:}

嗯，有道理，应该接受大赛辅导，让自己的技术水平提高一大截。如果您试90分钟的，我就试试能否在100分钟内完成。听上去好刺激，好期待!
