1st post: Moto parade in Riga (Burnout)

Twice a year we have the biggest motorcycle meetings in Riga, those are opening and closing of the moto season. Every kind of two and three wheelers of Latvia and few guest riders from other Baltic countries gathered in a supermarket parking place by the river Daugava to take a unified ride through the city. Traffic was closed for that moment of course. This was actually on 26th of April when around 2000 motorcycles in a row thundered in the streets of Riga. It is a tremendous feeling to be a part of it.

That is a lot of bikes. Do any of them come to my island. Once a year we have the Isle of Man TT road races for motorbikes the oldest in the world. I think they would enjoy that a great deal.

Never heard from anyone, but I am sure you are right about it. Such an event could be a dream of many riders.
