Zschopau Twinshock Enduro (East Germany)

The Factory Flyer (WR300 / 83) will be going to the old MZ factory to ride in the Zschopau Enduro next week! I will be picking up a couple of riding buddies to make the long drive from the South West of England, via the Dover Channel Tunnel and East all the way to East Germany. Rob Poulton will ride his Maico GS, Nigel Heath a 510 Husky and Me, my number one WR300. Hopefully we will have a good time and try to persuade some more European riders to come and ride the UK's premier Vinduro the 'Hot Trod' in Northumberland later this year!

I will try and get some photos along the way....

good luck !

Good luck.

Loved the photos from your last adventure.....you need a Drift or Go Pro....So we can live out our Vinduro lives through yours

How is the 300 idea working out? Will it be commercially available?

look other treads Andy !

The 300's have been breeding!!!

There are two new ones under construction. One is a CR300 that will be on display at the Telford show next year (now that it won't be finished in time for the Farleigh Castle Twinshock MX next month - due to waiting for the cranks to come back from heat treatment).

The other is a new WR300 that will be for use hopefully by the chairman of the ACU (UK governing body of Motorsport) to help publicise Twinshock Enduros in the UK. Also for use at the Hot Trod by the lucky guy who is coming from the USA to ride - as I promised some time back!

I will post a picture shortly...

Regarding 300 kits, Yes I could sell a few, but it is NOT going to be cheap as there are a fair few special parts!!! Let me know if you are genuinely interested and I will see....

Here they are!

510 nearly ready for the German trip next wednesday, lots of midnight oil being burned at the moment. The engine is out of my 86 mono which I used as Clerk of the Course at Doddington last weekend. Just the wiring to sort out for the lights now. See you wednesday lunch at the ferry terminal, can't wait

We are back from East Germany!

All went well. Here are a few pics to begin with whilst I recover from a very long drive....

Very shiny and sunny !

Thanks to Matthias Kierschk (pictured with me)

Fantastic Andy, just fantastic

Very cool!

800 BMW !

So, you also met Kay Pernitzsch's 510 !

No pics of the MZ????

It was amazing to see so many real factory bikes from back in the good old days! Also, Harald Sturm (Who was the main man with MZ) was riding - and very well too I may add...

Those BMW twins were real works of art. I am awaiting more pictures.
