Dave Races

Dave is now back home in Spain after a great trip to Ameide, Holland, where he very much enjoyed riding a 250 NSU Sportmax belonging to Jan Kostwinder. The NSU demonstration event was efficiently organised by Jan, Jeroen van der Meer and Evert Welvaart. Twenty or so NSU's and a large field of other classic bike's were run on a cobbled, road circuit, which must have been a bit hard on the suspension, and the riders. The event was well attended, and a good time was had by all.

Dave was very pleased to meet Ferry Brouwer of Arai Helmets, and collect his new 'Hailwood' helmet, and wow! what a fantastic helmet it is. Dave is thrilled to bit's with it; shame his girlfriend won't let him wear it in bed.!! Dave was very impressed when Ferry showed Dave the hundred's and hundred's of different helmets that they have made over the year's, with many famous one's instantly recognisable.

Dave would like to say how much he enjoyed meeting such friendly people, and a sincere thank you to Ferry Brouwer, Jan, Maaike and Marco Kostwinder, Mario van Rooyan, Melvin Frey, Roland Froyd and his son, Jan Heese, and Wim Heeroma, who kindly sent us the photo's shown here. Thank you all for your generous hospitality and he hope's to see you all again soon.
