Vintage Revival Montlhery 2024 - France
The Vintage Revival Montlhéry is one of the classic car world’s top events, where the humblest cyclecar ranks equal with the rarest racer. It is an event where you can watch, with your heart in your mouth, rare and early mechanical marvels roar around a classic track. And in 2024 the circuit celebrated its centenary! As the mighty engines cool, you can get close up to see the design ingenuity and feel the purring vibrations of these early machines driven by fearless racing pioneers. The Autodrome of Linas-Montlhéry, 16 miles south of Paris, is the last of the great vintage banked tracks to survive in almost its original condition.
Address: Av. Georges Boillot, 91310 Linas, Francie

Czech Velocipedist Club 1880 – field session 2024
The oldest cycling club in Bohemia – the 1880 Czech Velocipedist Club always meets at the beginning of the year for its annual meeting. This time it was combined with a trip to Moravia and over ten stops, which made the trip an incredible research experience.
DAY 1 – ARRIVAL IN MORAVIA
The first stop was semi-unofficial. The visit to the private collection of a friend PB and his friendly reception was very pleasant.

The Prague Mile and the exhibition PRAGUE BIKES AND MANUFACTURERS
As members of the oldest cycling club in the Czech Republic, ČKV 1880, we organize and participate in a farewell session on Prague's Letenská plain under the name - Prague MILE. It was no different at the beginning of November 2023.
The PRAGUE BIKES exhibition was a free continuation of the Pečič vs Štantejský sports bike exhibition. All this is a harbinger of the upcoming big exhibition in Prague, for which we are looking for bikes from Prague manufacturers, photos and documents to rent.
