Ardennes road trip 2012

Every year I go on short motorsickle holiday with Jelle Kroeze and his dad Jan Kroeze.
Usually we go to a Superbike race somewhere in Europe but this year we planned to go to the Ardennes in Belgium. The Kroezes already went to Belgium one week earlier so I did the trip
on my own. So last Saturday the trip started at 11.30 when I left Amsterdam to go to Arnhem.

My Gr650 needed a new chain set and the plan was to ask BC from Raw Candy to help me with
that and to help him out with his new project. A CB500 racer. When we took out my rear wheel
we found out a spacer was missing in my rear hub... Shit! Not a nice thing to find out when your planning to ride 1500km in 4 days.

We didn't have time enough to find a new spacer that day so we "fixed" it with a cb750 spacer. At night we watched BC's older brother Anne Maarten play double bass in Deventer at poetry festival Het Tuinfeest where I also saw Menno Wigman And Ramsey Nasr perform live. First time for me that I listend to live poetry. Thought I would hate it but I was wrong. They showed me poetry can be funny, inspiring and thought provoking. Never thought I would say that, ha. The day ended in Dieren.

The Next they I picked up my gear in Arnhem and from there I left to Maastricht, Vise, Trooz, Claudfontaine, Spa, Francorchamp and final destination Mont.

First pictures are in the Raw Candy Garage in Dieren.
In Francorchamps I saw a nice Renault Alpine A110.

Michiels BMW For Sale!

Michiel, our most active Roest Sidewalk Mechanic member, the crazy bastard, is selling his ultra nice Beemer..
Why you ask?
Because he all ready has more than enough bikes in his shed: a Royal Enfield, a CB750, a SR500 an a CX500 so this one has to go.
This is your chance to buy a very cool cafe racer with perfect lines and proportions.
For more info go to Michiels nice website ShedBuiltBikes (formerly known as BMWCafe)
The Beemer is for sale at Marktplaats.nl

Roest Sidewalk Mechanics Ride

Yesterday Anne Maarten came to Amsterdam on his nice CB500
We invited hime to Amsterdam for one of our infamous Roest Sidewalk Mechanics rides.
He's our Arnhem "club" member, ha
Half way the Dominator's head light stopped working. It doesn't show in the picture but it was getting dark and we where in the middle of nowhere somewhere in Noord Holland.
So we had to go back to Amsterdam using the highway.
20 minutes later is was dark.
