Roll & Flat Venice Beach Race
Read more: Roll & Flat Venice Beach RaceFew years back when I was in USA I came across an ad about The Race of Gentleman (TROG). It’s a vintage cars and motorcycles beach race on the Jersey shore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mykga82OT9U Since then I wanted to visit this kind of event and this year I was literally switching from circuit racing to kustom kulture events, so I thought I’d give it a go and visit one of the European versions on TROG. There were two to choose from: Rømø Motor Festival in Denmark and Roll & Flat Beach Race in Italy. Surprisingly, I’ve never been to Italy and “Italian”…

Enduro Tallinn GP 2018
Read more: Enduro Tallinn GP 2018This is a (very short) story about my experience with Enduro. Last year Estonian organisers made a showcase for FIM and got the honour to host a Grand Prix round of the FIM Enduro World Championship, in 2018. Best enduro riders from all over the World made their way to Tallinn for a two-day sprint in sands and forests. I’m not an avid motorcycle fan, but if there’s dirt and dust involved, I’ll take up the challenge. I shot it for the test run last year, so was really interested to see how the stars do it. Well, they did…

Motorcycle Maintenance Items For Fuel-Injected Bikes
Read more: Motorcycle Maintenance Items For Fuel-Injected BikesModern mechanics are far more complicated and generally reliable than their predecessors.

The reason why is simple; motorcycles are cheaper to run, you can avoid the congestion and they are actually fun. Add to this the good dealerships, such as www.procycles.com.au and you’ll be almost guaranteed hassle…

Enduro Tallinn GP 2017
Read more: Enduro Tallinn GP 2017As you can probably see from my blog, I’m mostly into car culture, but since Tallinn Enduro GP was held on a beautiful day in my hometown I went to check it out. With this event organiser prepare for a big one in 2018 – Endure GP World Championship round will be held in Tallinn.

Pirita-Kose-Kloostrimetsa Ringrada Exhibition
Read more: Pirita-Kose-Kloostrimetsa Ringrada ExhibitionIn one of the recent days I was passing by the street where the building of National Archive is situated and noticed that there is a pleasant and humble exhibition about the early years of Estonian motorcycle racing that were held in Pirita part of Tallinn. It was a six kilometre road course called Pirita-Kose-Kloostrimetsa that hosted it’s first race in 1933. Later it became known as Kalevi suurvõistlus (Kalev Big Race) and it was Estonia’s most prestigious racing event with all the USSR competing. Expo itself consists of some photography of the past, booklets from 1930s to 1970s, medals and few…
