The scent of two-stroke oil, the rumble of engines, and cheers: Dozens of Velosolex motorcycles were back on the road at the 20th Tessenberg Race on the Plateau de Diesse, with over 50 teams from countries including France, the Netherlands, and Australia. For six hours, original and customized bikes battled it out. Crashes, mechanical problems, yodeling, and teamwork characterized the race.
