So, holidays are coming to an end and we are slowly preparing for the return to school! To help you and add a little cheer during this back-to-business period, we present a few motorcycle events not to be missed that will brighten up your weekends.
Despite a slightly later date, we could not not mention the Moto Tour in our selection of back-to-school motorcycle events.
The Moto Tour will take place from October 7 to 15. It is the largest rally in the world! A 100% motorcycle week dedicated to the pleasure of riding.
Given that the excellent motorcycle blog lapoigneedanslangle has already written a very good summary of the event, we will not detail it here but we invite you to read the article; You will find the full program, videos of previous editions as well as a good plan to benefit from a discount on the registration price.
It is on the next September 23 and 24 that the Carole circuit located in the North of Paris in Tremblay en France will host the 12th edition of the SuperMoto of the Nations!
This race of rare intensity will bring together teams from around the world to compete on a very selective track mixing dirt and asphalt.
The French team has come out victorious from this race for the last 3 years and we hope they will continue to fly the colors of France high for this 12th edition.
You can find the full composition of the French team on the motorcycle news site, lerepairedesmotards.
If you are in the area, go cheer them on, entry is free for children under 14.
Moto Guzzi, it is a 90-year-old brand that has united many enthusiasts especially thanks to its models that have become true myths such as the Guzzi V7, the V7 Special and the Guzzi V7 Sport all equipped with the 90° V-twin engine, the symbolic engine block of the brand.
To gather the enthusiasts of the brand, every year, Moto Guzzi organizes the "Moto Guzzi open house" in its stronghold, in Italy in Mandello del Lario, in the heart of the manufacturing factory.
The 2017 edition will take place from September 8 to 10, 2017. The festivities will start on Friday at 3:00 PM and the program will be dense.
Visit to the museum, the shop and the production and assembly lines of the mythical twin-cylinder engines.
The heart of the party will be concentrated in the Guzzi Village. Testing the latest novelties, meeting the best Italian preparers, animations and musical atmosphere will contribute to the success of the event.
Can't make it to the event? Don't worry, you can follow it live on social media with the hashtag #ridebackhome.
No question here about opening the debate on the sometimes difficult coexistence between bikers and scooter riders!
It is true that unlike motorcycles, scooters are very rarely a passion and remain above all a means of transport but if there is one brand that stands out from the crowd it is the Vespa brand, so why not mention the Vespa parade in our back-to-school events?
Vespa brings together many fans to the point that a social network "do you Vespa?" was created to bring together all the lovers of the Italian scooter and that is why every year, a parade is organized in collaboration with the local Vespa Clubs.
This year, it is on September 16 that you can see throughout France gatherings of Vespa owners coming to share their passion for the brand around a friendly and convivial event.
The meeting point is communicated by the Vespa club of your city. If you are interested, inquire with them.
If you participate in one of these events, do not hesitate to share your photos and videos on social media mentioning @icasque
