Genesis of the meetings
For those who have not yet had the opportunity to visit us, a few words about the genesis of the meetings.
The idea to organize the first meeting was the initiative of Robert Izi Galka and Sambor, who thought of it while returning from the German Forum Africa Twin rally in Lissburg in 2010. It was intended to be an event integrating motorcycle vagabonds from Poland and Germany. Izi’s tragic death in Tajikistan meant that he was never able to attend the meeting he had dreamed of. The first IZI MEETING was held in 2011 in his memory. The main purpose of the rally became not only to integrate the traveling motorcycle community, but also to commemorate the person of Izi, and above all to organize a collection to support Izi’s family. This was just the beginning. It was almost natural to want to organize more meetings and help those in our community who, as a result of unfortunate events, need it.
Exactly as planned by IZI, the meetings in Grodziec have turned into an annual gathering of well-wishers to help other motorcyclists. The formula for multi-year meetings seems to be as solid as the walls of the castle where we meet. So, invariably, expect travel presentations, energizing concerts, charity auctions and pre-prepared motorcycle tour routes every year. There will also be contests with attractive prizes. IZI MEETING is said to be addictive. As organizers, we do not deny it and cordially invite you.
Since the first edition, held in 2011, the venue of the rally has been the charming Grodziec Castle near Zlotorya, which we take over in its entirety for the duration of the event.
Grodziec castle: 51°10’37.2″N 15°45’34.2″E (51.177004°N, 15.759492°E)
A few hundred people from more than a dozen countries come to the rally at Grodziec Castle every year. Poles usually make up 40-60%, the second largest group are visitors from Germany (25-30%), followed (in alphabetical order) by participants from Australia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Netherlands, Norway, Slovakia, Switzerland, Sweden, Ukraine, UK and Hungary.
If we left out any nation, please forgive us and let us know, we will fix our mistake right away :).
Most of the participants are people who come here every year.
IZI Meeting is all about people. People who are curious about the world and open to learning about others. Therefore, if you want to come here for the first time, you definitely won’t spend time alone. You will leave richer with many friends and interesting inspirations for your own travels. Although we see many people only at IZI Meeting, we often return to conversations interrupted a year ago as if we had interrupted them the day before. We look forward to the return of our participants, for whom IM was a stop on a long journey, and who promised to come again and tell us about their adventures.
The rally is organized by a team of several people whose members work for charity.
As the composition of the Team is evolving, the existence of IZI Meeting is due to the more than 30 people who have been involved in its organization so far. You can find the current composition of the Team, as well as those who have previously participated in its work, under the Team and Friends of Take it Izi tab. Starting in 2023. The team operates in a new organizational form in the form of the TAKE IT IZI Foundation. You can read more about the mission and goals of the Foundation in our statute , which we invite you to read.
You are cordially invited once again!
