Hamburg Harley Days and St. Pauli
We're a few days behind in posting, but it's been a pretty crazy 14 days so we beg forgiveness... Our buddy Lutz picked us up in Amsterdam and drove us to Hamburg where Harley Days was in full swing. Once a year 100,000 bikers take over the red-light district of St. Pauli, Hamburg. It's quite a show and to top it off, Germany played their Euro Cup match and won. For us Yanks a soccer match might not mean so much, but for the rest of the world "football" (soccer) is an obsession. It was pretty amazing to sit there watching Germany win their match and see the whole city explode into honking horns and drunkeness in the streets. Oh yeah there were some cool bikes there too. ;)
Kutty joined us at the Custombike Magazine booth and did a great job on his interview with ARD television. Our ruler buddy Jesper from Helmet Hair rode all the way from Copenhagen to hang out and get some beers and Lutz's pal Johnny even won best bike in the competition. All in all a pretty darned good time was had by all.
