Wheels and Waves part 2
On the day of the auction I was hanging out with Gary Inman.
In the middle of the day it was crazy hot so we where sitting in the shade at the Dice Magazine stand drinking gin tonics and crackers with cheese and home-made marmalade.
While drinking an other gin tonic and wearing shorts and a t-shirt David from El Solitario asked me if I wanted to test ride the just finished Trimotoro V650 Moto Guzzi. Hell yes!
I borrowed a helmet and gloves and jumped on the Guzzi. I never rode a Guzzi before.
It was a blast. I expected the seat to be very uncomfortable but I can tell you I was wrong. My bare knees touched the cylinders a few times so my knees where on fire the next days but it was great to ride in Biarritz after standing on the side taking pictures while everyone was blasting through town and me wanting to ride so badly...
It handled great, perfect riding geometry, nice power output and a sweet sound, the gin making me feeling a little light in the head, nice breeze and perfect weather. I was in heaven for 30 minutes. Thanks David, you the man. :)

Wheels and Waves
from SouthSiders MC:
"Following up on the huge success of the Southsiders evening at the ‘113’ in Toulouse, attended by friends from home and abroad, this year’s event will be staged in the prestigious surroundings of the Chateau de Brindos, a 5-Star Hotel located in Biarritz in the Basque country.
Our weekend begins on Friday 15 June morning With the exhibition
followed by an auction at 1.30 pm of motorcycles, classic and custom cars, automotive collectables and pieces of art. The auction has been initiated by Vincent Lassere of Bixente Moto with sales going under the hammer of local auctioneer Marie Francoise Carayol.
After the auction a small ride will be organised thru the french Basque country
the Southsiders evening commences at 7pm in magnificent surroundings, the stage of an exhibition «Waves & Wheels» featuring the work of twelve international artists sharing the Automotive and Surf theme, alongside a reunion of outstanding cars and motorcycles. Our friend and partner TBC Triumph, a Triumph dealership in Biarritz, will also be presenting a ‘special’ for the occasion. On Saturday after a ride and drive around the Basque country in France and Spain, a second party has been organised in partnership with BLITZKRIEG MACHINES"
El Solitario MC invited me to be part of this great event, thanks guys!
This is going to be so nice. Looking forward to it :)
Oh and I have to say that's very sexy looking flyer Steven Burke! And no, that's not how you spell my last name. One N and Two U's :)

Als er Nederlanders zijn die het leuk lijken om mee te gaan stuur dan een mailtje dan kunnen we wat afsprken van te voren.
