Hi Russel,
sorry for my late posting, but i was very busy the last days....
The Sachs was built around 1953, one of these early Mopeds with 26" Wheels.

Neat bikes and the motors look so well made. That's the first front wheel belt drive I've seen. So many different ways of doing things and yet some of the bikes look much like those on our forum. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful bikes, I am looking forward to seeing the burnt and rusted little front engine finished. Have fun, Dave

Here's another neat video by the same guy. I especially enjoyed seeing the riders interacting and looking over each others' rides. What struck me was that although the language is foreign to me, these guys are not. They love their bikes the way we love ours; all of us brothers in the wind...

Wouldn't that be something... Who needs a common language when everybody understands "vroom vroom" ... boy, that would be fun, wouldn't it? Everybody looking at each others' rides and finding ways to communicate questions and compliments. Solidarity riding along together, brothers and sisters in the wind. Got to have some girls riding, too. So in reality since I can't go to Germany I will ride with you guys in spirit as one world community on our motor bicycles.
