Big Tim wrote:The Bikers Classics took part last weekend (1-3 July), and once again there was a plethora of legendary riders and machines assembled for the event. There were over forty sidecars on display and in action over the weekend; including a large number of genuine Rennsport BMW's. The atmosphere in the paddock all weekend was excellent, and I can thoroughly recommend attending, with plenty to see and do (including a four hour solo endurance race on the Saturday evening).

Do not be fooled into thinking these are solely "parades" - these bikes are being ridden hard - the final outing on Sunday with the push start especially so! Thank you once again to Ralph Bohnhorst and all those behind the scenes for making this one of the highlights of the season for all those who take part and spectate.

Apologies to those whose machines are not pictured - my camera battery died before I had chance to get a decent photo of all outfits. I purposely did not take any "action" shots, as it's not my thing. There are already plenty of such images available on social media, and the official event photographers - http://www.bikerspix.be
Look at entry number 12, poor Steve could not get there at the last minute, shame, that bike was the first classic home, second only to the current world champ on his F1 missile.

The # 4 Krauser was built and raced at the IOM TT by Otto Haller, it must be one of the loudest bikes ever built, like most of the bikes at Spa it was immaculate.
