Jorge Lorenzo with his Scooter (w/video)

By Toni M.

Check out MotoGP rider Jorge Lorenzo who gives El Follonero, from Salvados Spanish TV show an adventurous, but slow ride on his very vintage scooter with matching sidecar along the streets of Barcelona.

Between slight mechanical difficulties, billowing smoke and getting stopped by the cops and almost rear ending a car and forgetting about a red light, the Spanish duo arrive safely at the station so El Follonero can catch his train.

Sidecar racing: it's all about technique

By koen


Remember the good old days! This nice picture is taken by photographer Jonathan Godin during the Belgian TT Classics at Gedinne. If anyone has any information on the bike, post your comment. It’s a BMW but we’re a little in the dark on this one.
