Westcoast Motor Show @ Botnia Hall - Part 1 - Motorsports - 24th of September 2017 - Vaasa, Finland

Last Sunday I made a one day trip to Vaasa to visit Westcoast Motor Show for the first time. I had quite a busy schedule that day. I took a train from Oulu around 9 am in the morning and arrived to Vaasa little over 1 pm. Botnia Hall, where the event took place, is located in Mustasaari, around 7 kilometers from the city centre. A quick cab drive took me under 15 minutes to reach my destination.

Westcoast Motor Show is arranged by a local association called Westcoast Street Cruisers ry. Show features all kinds of vehicles from restored classics to heavily modified cars and motorcycles. There were also few snowmobiles, which I will cover later.

Helsinki Bike Show 2017 - 10th of June - Helsinki, Finland

Here's a peek to some of the motorcycles displayed at the Helsinki Bike Show last June. Show was held in Kaivopuisto, Helsinki. Weather was great that day, warm and sunny, which helped to gather more visitors and motorcycles around the venue. Helsinki Bike Show is an annual event hosted by Modified Motorcycle Association of Finland. It's also free of charge. I'm glad that I finally got to the time edit these photos and show them to all of you. Enjoy!
