That is what Swedes calls "raggare"! :-)

All jokes aside, Norrköping is situated in a beautiful part of Sweden and it is great to see all the enthusiast that have been working all winter on their vintage cars and bikes.

Thanks for sharing!

I know, he has a triumph. Thought that could be used as a general term for a motorbike a la dumb and dumber. "I Can Get 70 Miles to the Gallon on this Hog" "You totally redeemed yourself"

There are still no leaves on the trees in your pictures and it's the start of summer? I think Summer in Sweden must be like summer in Alaska, six weeks long
