Flat Track racing may not be that well-known in Europe, but it is certainly one of the most fun, and - importantly - most accessible forms of motorcycle racing out there. To promote this great sport, Royal Enfield started Slide Schools in India, Thailand, the USA, the UK, Italy - and now in the Benelux, the Flat Track Academy powered by Royal Enfield. And you can win one of these courses!

Set in a great place, Tobacco Dock in the center of London, featuring more than 300 custom bikes from ‘Past, Present and Future’. An abundance of bikes, ranging from pre-war, to choppers, bobbers, caféracers, retro-bikes, but also enduros and quite a few electric bikes. Loads of fun from the Friday evening to the closure on Sunday afternoon; plenty to do, gawking at bikes sure, but also entertainment – live music, presentations, panel discussions plus food and drinks galore.

‘Retrorides By Lourenço’, who have a 30-year history of designing and building award-winning custom motorcycles, have decided to follow their desire to play their part in creating a cleaner and smarter future for humanity, and founded RTR Electric motorcycles.

The Royal Enfield Super Meteor is a retro cruiser – with all the cruiser characteristics you might expect – low seat, hourglass shape seen from above, large tank, forward controls, high and wide handlebars. You sit upright with your arms and legs stretched forward. Not really familiar for a sportsbike rider like myself, but I have to admit, it’s comfortable and allows you to keep riding all day long!

So what do you do when you want your vintage 1969 Honda CL350 turned into a caferacer? You stuff the bike in the back of your VW Golf, throw in a couple trash bag full of parts, and drive the 90 miles or so from Seattle up north to Moto Design Garage in Bellingam, WA...

If you are ready for a fika, join RGNT Motorcycles in Årsunda (Sweden) next weekend 24-25th February, where they are looking to set a new electric motorcycle speed record on ice!

What is a fika you might ask? Well, it is a Swedish custom where you take a break from your activities to drink coffee, eat cake, and relax with others. So, we’ve been invited to join the fika, but what’s going on over there in Sweden?

Mooyong Zeus is the founder, owner, designer, builder and all-round nice guy of Zeus Customs in Bangkok, Thailand. I last met Mooyong during my visit before Covid – so I was mighty curious how he is doing now that the pandemic-storm has subsided a bit.
