Optical Migraine Prism

My first Impala

Every year in early summer, Motoclub Impala Impala organized an excursion / concentration which together more than 100 bikes, all Montesa Impala. This year, in particular, 126 motorcycles.

Impala had to postpone scheduled for June 14 due to a strike in the Delivery will fuel at gas stations. Thus, the Impala was held on 20 September.

Notice that the second poster in the background colors vary, more autumnal ... ;-)




The Impala is a bike path all more or less together, with a couple of groupings. In total, counting the trip back home, did more than 300km.




Early morning we met at the top of Tibidabo. Will gradually appearing more and more Impalas to register, while the early bird breakfast.






putting the bikes are going well tidy ...










... to make the group photo ...




... and engines are started. A real delight for the senses. Being my first time, I assure you goose bumps.





In this video I go I ... jejejeje




(Incidentally, the videos and photos in this post are taken from the web of the motorcycle club, and here the artist left the camera ...)


We moved to the first grouping, and then you realize that we must go warily. Too many people, and more than a "quemadillo." He soon learns to go behind what has touched you, at your pace and distance leaving (most do not carry ;-)), brake lights ahead and forget, mostly because you can never go at your own pace. And in the same way, let it pass the "Quemao." In a country piss you off and take them out and quiet wheels.

The feeling is indescribable, to exit a corner and see that tape of Impalas, one after another, and all with the same gear engaged, so that the sound of the exhaust is unison. A joy.

Of course, at the beginning and the bikes cold, coughing, swallowing fans you smoke ...

Motoclub have hung in a video that illustrates very well what I explained so bad.



scrotumtightening, right?






In the last reunion we had the assistance of the legendary Josep M ยช Busquets, a champion of Montjuich 24H with the 60 Impala.






a gentleman, he brought his own Impala 250 and to the Cromwell town with running, which still bears the scorpion painted.




the end, we group them (almost) everyone to eat (well, well) so that the end everyone will shake to return to its point of origin.

course, have an Impala and not go to the Impala should be punishable by law. Does anyone know any concentration anywhere in the world we can gather more than 100 motorcycles of the same make and model, and which is now more than 20 years that are not produced? I certainly do not.
And the Impala are not well ... what a shame bigger:-D

I for my part, I miss 2009.



Oops, I forgot. A couple of newspaper clippings of the event.
