KTMeet 2011, First Impressions

Third edition now behind us, my first thought was: there is progress! And that makes us happy.
More people, very good trails, fun competitions that attracted a crowd, many simles and a lot of positive feedback. Keeping in mind that this event is by the people, for the people, having fun is the only thing that matters.

KTMeet 2011 was once more “powered by Motorex”, and I’d like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsor for the support. Also, we need to keep in mind the extremely important role our co-organizers played in this event, Transilvania Bikers 1990.

The road from Cluj-Napoca is 40kms, the last 15 are a little rougher and the last 2.5 are dirt. Not a problem for those not riding an RC8 though.
