Classic Bike Guide Magazine 333 January 2019 Zurück Ausgabe

Firstly, may I, on behalf of all who work at Classic Bike Guide towers, wish you a warm and prosperous New Year! May your bolts not round off, your petrol not turn stale and your tyres be eternally pumped up. And if you see a mild forecast over the festive period, keep away from the sherry – some wonderful rides with quiet roads can be had while the rest of the world are cramming mince pies into their already bloated bellies.

If ever you’re feeling the years then relax – we are trendsetters! The annual Motorcycle Live show was busy and saw even more new bikes featuring a classic style, with Norton releasing two new, affordable and frankly great
looking 650 bikes – the Atlas and Nomad; Triumph giving over half their stand to the Bonneville family; Metisse showing their range, while CCM enthralled the crowds with a full-scale replica Spitfire fighter plane on their stand alongside the numerous Spitfire bike range.
