Meeting The Freak at Mill
« on: June 19, 2009, 05:10:41 AM »
This isn?t exactly a riding story but?
Pics to follow..


Meeting The Freak at Mill

Heading to Europe for a Sidecarcross vacation with my buddies, the Harte brothers. While there I plan to meet up with the KX500Freak at the Dutch National Sidecarcross race at Mill in Holland, July 5 . Looking forward to meeting a fellow KX500 and sidecar motocross fan. Also looking forward to some good beers :-D. I?ll have to behave because pics will probably be posted here before I return. Bringing a couple of KX5 Ceet covers for his stable of 5s. Sidecarcross where the last of the big bore 2 strokes live. Home of the 700cc Zabel. On our vacation we are going to 5 sidecar motocross races on 5 consecutive weekends. Starting with the Freak at Mill. Then hitting 3 World Sidecarcross GPs in Belgium, Germany and Denmark. Followed by a German national sidecar race and back home. We have met many friends at the races in Euro and look forward to adding the Freak to our list. To be continued??

 :-D
We are back from our European odyssey. What a trip. It was great meeting Menno aka KXfreak at Mill. Enjoyed many fine beers. We met with him at the first race of our whirlwind vacation. We consider him a good friend. The trip only got better from there. Tractor races to the pub, breaking two ribs riding KTMs in Holland, strippers in the beer tent :-D, World sidecar champion Daniel Willemsen giving me the front shield from his sidecar, drinking beer with the Bergermiester in Germany, more strippers in the beer tent :-D, MANY,MANY fine beers, seeing many old friends and meeting many new friends. Too many good times to recount here.

Menno let me know if you need any more parts, I can ship them no problem.The Harte brothers and I are already planning our trip for 2011. Hope to meet up again.

No I am not related to the sidecar racers in the pic. Though they do bear a resemblance. Sidecar people are a unique bunch.

Take care,

Mike the Tall
