Premiere at Lake Como: for the first time, classical motorcycles were allowed to participate in this year at the concorso D'eleganza. This is one of the world's most prestigious beauty contests for vintage cars, which was previously reserved only .
Photo Show: Concorso D'eleganza 2011.
The concorso is the residence of a cardinal once already since 1929, instead, always in the Villa d ' Este, and now a luxury hotel in a spectacular location on Lake Como.
A little, the 30 participating motorcycles admittedly acted as the poor relatives in the middle of all the multi-million luxury cars of days and its no less well-to-do owner. Rare and thus very featured pieces were at the motorcycle competition but quite present, from a U.S. Pierce from the year 1910 of the tourer Ardie RBK 503 Merano from 1934 up to the Moto Guzzi 350 Bialbero who twice won the World Cup in the 1950's.
The audience on Lake Como, which shell after all must out admission €14, took up the additional two-wheeled vehicle show sympathetically, when also the interest was in the roaring race car of past days. Manufacturer BMW, which holds the patronage of the concorso D'eleganza and organize the motorcycle competition of the German classic car expert Stefan Knittel was around ten years will again invite motorcycles to the concorso D'eleganza at any rate in the years to come.
