I have a few pictures from the show I attended in Roskilde in March/April 2012. Some of them you might already have seen, but I thought I would make a "special" only with pictures of my classic sportsbike:

Chrome, paint and leather

Posted by Jørgen S. Kjølsen on Friday, April 20. 2012 in Motorcycles

Hi again!

I promised you pictures from the show in Roskilde, Denmark, so pictures you shall have!

First I will start off with a few pics of my '77-reg Yamaha RD 350-Bwhich was a part of the show:



Behind the bike I placed alot of materials such as spare parts catalouges, service manuals, tools and more.


The bike was decorated with drivers gear matching the period of time; gloves, jacket and helmet was all red, I was walking in leather boots which was simular to the time of the bike and had a Castrol overall on.

Apart from my bike there was also other bikes:
An Indian (USA), 1923 Nimbus Stovepipe (Denmark), Jawa (Slovakia) and CZ (Czech Rep.) from Denmark Vintage Motorcycleclub:




Four Nimbus Bumblebees (Denmark) from the Danish Nimbus owners club:


About 20 mopeds from the Vintage Moped Club Stemplet/The Piston (Denmark, France, Japan, Germany, Austria):


And from the DKW Club a DKW RT125 and a bicycle with a DKW-engine (Germany):



A BMW Isetta (Germany) also came by, it was called Betty Boop:
.

Sourounding me you could see Skoda (Czech Rep.), Ford Classic Club (for European produced Fords), Wartburg and Trabant (Germany/DDR) and Lancia (Italy). Following the row down to the other wall you found Triumph TR Club and Jensen (both from England).

The other half was Santa Cruisers (with mainly American musscles - and a Jaguar), a Fiat (Italy), two Ford Taunus (European made), two DKWs (Germany) and Rover Club (England).

I have too many pictures to show them all - but maybe I will do a "car of the month/week" of some of the cars from the show... Maybe starting with the crazy guys in there East-German two stroke cars! Those guys were as crazy as me!
But that will be later.

Till then, have fun, and stay safe!

Take me home, country ro... clouds

Hi again. I am on my way back from London. Right now I am flying over Germany. All in all ithas been a good trip. At least now I have been in London.

Honostly, I don't really liked London: I perfere Saint-Petersburg. London was too "gray" and "closed" - perhaps it has too many too high buildings, which cut of the light and that's why I found it gray and closed. Peterburg was more "open" and doesn't have so many high buildings as London did.

The plane I am in, tho is delayed: a hot air balloon had suddently dissapeared, so London Flight Controle didn't want to send any planes up untill they had located the balloon.

But soon I am home. More info and pictures will come!

I am googling at 34k feet altitude...

Hi again!

I just wanted to give you all an update from the one I sent earlier (it was scheduled to send on take-off - sorry; but I am a lazy-bone).

I am sitting in a Norwegian Airlines Boing 373-800 from Copenhagen to London Gatwick while writing this, and I came to think of the relative new movie (newer then the original movie) "The Journey to the Center of the Earth" where Brendan Fraser is on his way to Iceland, and his nephew are googling the Islandic professor Sigbjórn on his Sony Playstation PSP and BF (As I said; I am a lazy-bone) ask him "What are you doing?" and the nephew replied "I am googling at 34.000 feet altatude. (BF: You can do that?) Welcome to the 21st Century.".

Well - so am I, and I thought I might as well spend the oppertunity to say hi to you while Michael Bublé and other smooth voices are running into my ears from one of the nine build-in radiostations on the plane.

I still don't know if I will write while in London, but if I still have power on the laptop, I will send you a status update from the plane like this.

Till then, please have fun, stay happy and do try to behave!
... and remember to leave a comment; I get too few non-spam comments on my blog ;-)
