THE world famous Custom Bike Show, held each year by Twin Club MC at Norrtelje on the Swedish coast, is celebrating its 40th anniversary this summer.
Although Twin Club took a break from operating the show in the 1980s, it is the oldest custom show in the world (by a matter of months!), and this year also sees another anniversary - this will be the 10th year that the show has been an AMD World Championship Affiliate.
Being staged on Saturday June 7th this year (always the first Saturday of June, coinciding with Sweden's National Holiday weekend), the one-day/seven-hour show has seven classes and is a genuine 'ride-in'. It has a big reputation for some of the best "authentic" real-world, well-ridden custom bikes and best examples of 'Swedish Style' choppers ever seen at any show, with visitors from all over Scandinavia and beyond - hence its status as the Scandinavian Championship of Custom Bike Building.
