I visited the Coupes Moto Legende festival at Dijon Prenois race track today. Bimota Classic Parts had a really good exhibit there, with at least 20 Bimotas new and old. The guys from BCP were very welcoming and gave me a very nice tour of their collection, pointing out all the interesting features. Then to top it off race versions of the YB8 and Yb4 took to the track with bikes of the same era. Whilst it was not a race, they were "giving them the beans"! All in all, a very enjoyable afternoon and thank-you to all at Bimota Classic Parts.

Flew to Lyon, then drove up. Glad I wasn't in the saddle, as the temperature during the day was low thirties over the whole weekend. Every kind of bike there from early 1900s to modern day. Fascinating to see live examples of how the various engineering issues were slowly overcome. A number of "funny" front ends etc. Great festival.
