The bike.
East German built Simson Schwalbe 50cc moped.
The rider.
Florian Rolke
There's a German language website and a German language book. If any German speakers read this, please let us know what it's like.
This is taking 'motorcycle touring' to another dimension! Some photos from the trip:
I've always liked the Schwalbe and would probably have bought one by now, but with my *cough* manly physique *cough* it would probably look like I was on an amusement arcade ride rather than an actual motorcycle.
ReplyDeleteRespect for even attempting this trip, but there does seem to be a movement to do stuff like this on as small a bike as you can find.
