While many of you were enjoying the 2016 Sturgis Rally, many others on the other side of the Atlantic were participating to the Germany Bike And Music Weekend, a wild event combining crazy and insane vehicles on 2. 3 and 4 wheels, drag racing open to all, around the clock heavy metal music on 2 stages, a custom bike show and all kind of contest involving bare chest ladies…The “Knight Riders” started the event 20 years ago and developed an event concept with no equivalent in the US, from a “Top Gas Super Twins” to an ”All Harley Drags” to a Bike Show competition followed by burnouts stopping only when the tire is gone. Below the pictures of the top winners. (photos @ H. Roesler for C. Huze)

Great customs
Would it be too much to ask where this event was held in Germany?
All info is here. http://www.bike-and-music-weekend.de/en/
Bike and Music has been at home for 15 years at Geiselwind/Germany, the event itself in the 21st year. Geiselwind is a small town beside the Autobahn A3 between Wuerzburg and Nuernberg in Franconia (the northern part of Bavaria/Germany), actually an Area where many GI’s where stationed during the “Cold War” – and some of theme stayed after their service. The Autohof Strohofer is a Truck Stop just off the A3 Exit, running multiple events during the year including Europe’s biggest Truck-Meeting, AC-DC cover Band contests and themed US-Car and Car event. Due to the involvement to the German Drag Racing scene, Bike and Music is held the weekend BEFORE the NitrOlympX at Hockenheim, Europe’s biggest Dragrace, allowing participants to test and dial-in bikes and cars. The normal date would be the first Weekend of August, colliding with the first Weekend of Sturgis. http://www.bike-and-music-weekend.de/
