yesterday was the national oldtimer meet-up (nationale veteranen treffen) in woerden, here in the netherlands. i rode down together with a friend.
parking our bikes at the entrance to the mayhem. my 550 upfront, behind it my friend hugo's lx250.
the whole terrain is full of bikes and stands where you can get parts, manuals, everything...
there's a sea of little mopeds. my ss50 would have had good company there.
here's some real steampunk! this peugeot is 110 years old.
the italian corner.
a row of hondas and beemers... and hey isn't that a nice looking 550 in the back
there's a signposted route you can ride. the start is via a stage where everyone stops and gets interviewed, the bike is briefly discussed and some jokes are made. they also take a picture that you get afterwards.
i'm the guy on the left, hugo on the left. you can clearly see which one of us is the bigger media slut!
just some pics from the ride
yes the land is flat around here!
the moped gang.
look:
no hands! no feet! ... no teeth!
was a nice way to spend a saturday
