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.

Even taking pictures was difficult!
Fahrrad FEST Bad Brückenau 1.Juli 2023 - Germany
The efforts and the good name of the entire family of the owner of the museum, Ivan Sojc, have made the meeting of collectors perhaps the most interesting specialized exchange in Europe within a few years. Today, Fahrrad FEST in Bad Bruckenau, on the premises of a great bicycle museum, is regularly visited by collectors from all over Germany, Austria, Holland, Poland, the Czech Republic, Italy, France, Switzerland and other countries. Take a close look at some photos from the event and make your own judgment based on the quality of the bikes on offer. The number of visitors cannot be compared with the gigantic vintage events for cars or motorcycles, but there are definitely more real bike collectors and buyers here than anywhere else.
Always the first weekend in July, so mark the date July 1, 2024 in your calendar now so you don't miss your chance to be there next year.
