This was a charity ride called the distinguished gentleman’s ride. It takes place on the same day, all over the world. In 2024 it was May 19th and Bert’s was a place where many riders gathered.

At the 21st classic car extravaganza in September 2022. First full motorcycle display with our bikes and those of our very kind clients.

Sadly, Victor is no longer with us, but the Extravaganza looks set to continue in his memory.
