It's February 10 or 11. As a true motorcycle enthusiast, you will of course be in Wieze, Belgium, for the Moto Retro Wieze. It is a must-be for vintage motorcycle enthusiasts, and this year it is extra special with the second part of the trilogy 'Les Demoiselles de Herstal', in which the spotlight is on the Belgian motorcycle giants Saroléa, Gillet and FN.
As a visitor, what awaits you? The fair opens its doors at 09:30 AM and closes at 17:30 PM. The entrance fee is 10 euros, but it is free for children under 12 – perfect for a family outing. Plus, if you come by motorcycle, parking is completely free. And as a motorcycle enthusiast, you do not hesitate to use the engine at slightly lower temperatures. And for convenience, you can even pay with your phone thanks to the 'Payconiq' app.
And then, of course, there is Yves Demanet, the man behind the organization. You can always reach him by email or telephone for more information. He is the go-to person for everything related to this event.
So, are you ready to be part of this fantastic journey through the history of the Belgian motorcycle industry? I can already tell you, it will be an unforgettable experience. Not only will you see beautiful classic motorcycles up close, but you will also delve into a piece of history that shaped the world of motorcycles.
Imagine walking along the stands, searching for parts to complete the restoration. Or looking for a new motorcycle from an era where craftsmanship and passion went hand in hand. And the best part? You are surrounded by people who are just as passionate about classic motorcycles as you are. The conversations are about restorations, the glories of past times and perhaps even about how you can make your own classic motorcycle even better.
And, don't forget to have a chat with the other visitors and exhibitors. You never know what stories or tips you can pick up. Moto Retro Wieze is not just an exhibition, it is a community, a place where knowledge and passion come together.
