Our Favourite Racing Outfit Turns a Decade Old. Get in on Those Celebrations!

Over the years, if you’ve been a regular reader, you’d have read countless reports of us trying our best at emulating some modicum of speed around a racetrack in race-spec vehicles. Now, while this is indeed a whole tonne of fun, more often than not, these reports end up focussing a touch too much on our personal experiences. Not by accident, mind. They’re intended to bring out the emotional and more seat-of-the-pants sort of experience surrounding track days.
What really should be added here in this piece, however, is that most of these track days have been courtesy Volkswagen Motorsport and their ever-increasing lineup of rather excellent home-grown race machines. Kind of fits right in to our Summer of Speed theme, doesn’t it?

HISTORY CHANNEL
When I'm around old motorcycles, I often find myself wondering what it must've been like to be born in an earlier time. Wondering, mind you, not wishing. I wonder what it was like when mankind invented the motorcycle. I wouldn't want to get anywhere near the first motorcycle, the Daimler Reitwagen (the word means 'riding car', stupidly enough), made by German inventors Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in 1885. To quote Melissa Holbrook Pierson, 'The first motorcycle looks like an instrument of torture.' And something that might cause an explosion uncomfortably close to one's nether regions. Right after it's shaken loose every healed bone in one's body.
