Positive Pracht
By Michiel Van Damme
Op de motor door Roemenië
Roemenië heeft geen beste reputatie. Vampiers, een stalinistische dictator en milieuverwoestende industrieËn bepalen het beeld, dat recent nog werd aangevuld door skimmende en kunstrovende boevenbendes. Op reis met de motor door Maramures¸ ontdek je echter een ander beeld.Read thearticle.

Article in The Riders Digest from UK
by Jeoff Thomas
Transfagarasan Highway: Just when you think that things can’t get any better, they do. It’s like riding into a photograph that you recognise. Hairpin bend after hairpin bend, climbing into the snow and clouds. The sight lines are perfect and all of the road is there to use. The sight lines are perfect and all of the road is there to be used. You don’t need to ride quickly and it doesn’t really matter what bike your riding, it’s all just spectacularly good. read the article
Transylvania Live - Article in Cycle Torque from Australia
by Chriss Picket
The trip was exotic, humorous, sobering, wild, breathtaking, and visually spectacular.
To say this
is one of the greatest things I've done on a motorcycle is a major understatement. It's hard to
describe the region's beauty but there's many areas in Australia just as beautiful. I found the
culture and the way of life of the Romanian people the special part of the trip. read the article
Transylvanian Travels in 100% Biker, UK
by Nik Simson
There were, you see, a ruck of 650GS BMWs and one 1200GS.
We were to draw lots for who rode which bike and
muggins here got the last number to be drawn so I,
basically, had to wait until the others’d picked their
bikes and then take what was left. We all assumed
the 1200 was Alin’s and so they all picked a 650 and,
when it was my turn, I was about to too when Alin
walked across the remaining 650 and got on it. That
meant I got the 1200 – result! read the articles: part 1,part 2, part3,part 4, part 5, part 6, part 7

Riding Transylvania BMW ON Motorcycles Owners of America by Court
Fisher
With apologies to Bram Stocker's
Dracula and the contemporary
vampire craze, riding in Romania's
Transylvania region is
more exciting than a bite on the
neck or learning how to kill the
living dead. Transylvania's mix
of cultural histories and conflict,
medieval to baroque to modern
architecture, horse-drawn carts
clopping along European Union signage
highways, the residue of
Nicolae Ceausescu's Soviet - era
dictatorship, and riding the
spectacular Transfagarasan Pass
make for a very heady motorcycle
jaunt. read the article
