The first 3 runs of the day are 'show runs', the first of which between local politician Roland Bernhard on 'Jörg’s own', a Triumph Thruxton and local priest Jürgen Schwarz on 'Jericho', a Yamaha TR1 built by Benders Echte Motorräder.

The first sprint class is the International Sprint which is an invitation only event for celebrities and tunning shops to show what they can do.

There again you have to be one of the lucky ones choosen for the 32 places on the start line.

Triumphs, Ducatis, BMWs . .

Sound and smell of the Kawasaki KH triple.

This Triumph drag racer wasn't in the sprints but would have looked good on the start line alongside,

This stunning BMW streamliner.

Which must be the most original bike of the weekend.

The Cafe Sprint competitors ride back to the start line after the warm up run.

It fits all the entrance criteria, how cool is that !

BMW cafe racers are a big trend right now and were present all around the event.

Even based on R25 250cc singles.

Great looking R75/6 bobber.
