Wheels and Waves, another year, continues to surprise us with its global expansion. It began on Wednesday, June 14th with the "El Rollo" race at the Lasarte Hippodrome. Various disciplines were competed with different engine displacements and experience on the terrain.
In the Super Hooligans category (above 800cc), our "partner" Adrián Otero (Sacamantecas) literally gave his all, reaching third place in the final with his Harley Davidson Sportster 883, with the only preparation being 19" knobby tires. The unfortunate fall of the Indian preceding him caused him to lose control on the curve and eat hippodrome dirt, both him and the oil tank of his Harley; unfortunately, his last race ended here, having almost achieved second place. Not bad, considering the difference in horsepower between some and others.
The final result: two broken metatarsals, a bent suspension, and a new power filter for the carburetor. But with pride held high!!!!!!!
Steve Caballero from the Bones Brigade (not the deputy mayor of Vigo) also made an appearance at Wheels and Waves, putting in a not-bad performance in his first flat track.
The next day was the official inauguration of Wheels and Waves in the classic Pasaia warehouse. An old factory repurposed as a multidisciplinary space.
An installation of cages with the Desert Wolves from El Solitario Mc inside was the center of attention in the main warehouse; a Cybernetic Angel Cristo presented the three beautiful Desert Wolves.
This year, the Californian magazine DICE MAGAZINE also had its space at Wheels and Waves. A display of glitter and ape hangers with a lot of style.
On Friday, DragRace day at Punks Pike, with "la copita," a themed race for "50cc" motorcycles, as a new modality. This was because it couldn't be held last year due to adverse weather.
Punk's Peak had a spectacular final between two great beasts: the 190 hp Indian prepared by Young Guns and the BMW nineT prepared by Workhorse Speedshop and ridden by Lucky Cat. Ultimately, the former MotoGP rider Katja Poensgen took the prize (never better said).
All of this has been an official chronicle; the unofficial part we're taking to the grave!!!!
