Custom Bike Show - June 2022
Twin Club MC - Norrtälje, Sweden
The oldest AMD World Championship Affiliate event, and arguably the oldest custom bike show of them all, Twin Club MC of Norrtälje in Sweden was able to bring back its Custom Bike Show in June - for the first time since 2019.
It is a one-day show, staged in the Societetsparken (City Park) in the heart of Norrtälje - a former port city on the Baltic coast around two hours northeast of the capital Stockholm. The show attracts competitors and visitors from all over the Nordic countries and northern Europe.
Down the years it has produced some famous and influential champions and builds and remains the 'Keeper of the Flame' where the traditional 'Swedish Style' is concerned - especially the classic long fork chopper. Always staged on the first Saturday of June (Sweden's National Day), it is the starting gun for the northern European and Nordic riding season.
With the AMD World Championship still in search of the next stage in its journey as a design and engineering showcase, Twin Club awarded a prestigious 'Jury Prize' rather than expenses for the three best bikes to compete at the 'AMD' - one of seven classes, plus a Public Choice.
