The Belladonna Trackers guys stopped romping in their underground Stockholm dungeon long enough to go out to one of Sweden's many speedway ovals for some dirt track fun. And Jan-Willem and Tom from the Dutch Brothers drove all the way from Switzerland (a loooong way) to give them lessons and tasters on their bikes.
Our friend Marcus, of Marcus Moto Design, went along and said this...
It was cool to see a real flattrack bike ride a track! Thanks to the Dutch Bros who brought 2 bikes, did some races together with speedway and
motocross riders on 450 crossers. They let the riders try their bikes and everyone had a blast!
My 4 year old boy was stoked!
I hope that this is the start for the sport in Sweden and we can see built-it-yourself bikes as the ones in the UK.
Hopefully we will have more of these official training sessions for flat track in Sweden this year. Belladonna will then have their bikes ready and hopefully a handful others!

ReplyDeleteI was surprised by the amazing grip of the Golden Tires! These are the tires that Marco Belli helped developing and he has been racing them this year.
