A open day in Mosten

Hanne´s Bonneville

SInce I decided to to a motorcycle stories I needed a place to start. It is hard being a foregner and find the people with the right bikes that you want to photograph and tell storie about.

 

So I contacted my fellow student Mark and he told me about this club that his wife was in once and the would have an open day on saturday. It is that kind of a day that everyone could bring their´s bike or car and race the quarter mile. A lot of noise and of course, great bikes and cars! Get things tested after the winter brake.

 

So me and Mark drove up there on our bikes. Mark knew few people around there and we went for a beer and a chat and there I met Hanne, who owned a 65 model of Triumph Bonneville.

 

I asked her if she would be a part of my project and she said "No problem" and laughted. She is a very happy 52 year old woman and I could see that she fitted very well for the project, and it is fun to have a lady in it too. So we decided to meet up on monday and she sended me SMS and asked if I would take a ride with her and her club to Silkeborg. I did.

 

I was in, and the project had been started.
