Some of the activities
in our clubhouse
(And more to come soon...)
We see our clubhouse as an important part of the bikerculture.
Located in central Oslo people from around Norway and from other countries in
Europe tends to drop in for a visit, stay-over or party. Regularly fellow
bikers, both loners and from other bikerclubs, who
share our interest for building and modifying motorcycles come to us for a talk
and a cup of coffe or beer. To look at bikes and
projects, show up their own bikes - or amcars. Just sharing this common interest which is the backbone in the bikercommunity.
Members of Company MC have been heavily involved in
motorcycle assosiations through the years. H-DOCN (Harley-Davidson
Owners Club Norway) saw it's
birth in our clubhouse in 1986 and numerous meetings have been held here since.
NFSOK, (Norsk
Forening for Spesielle og Ombygde Kjøretøy) do have most of
their meetings here. Another frequent
user of the house is NMCU (Norsk Motorcykel Union),
especially the region-chapter for Oslo, which co-arrange Oslo Open MC Show.
Classic Racing Club Norway has several meetings here too.
Oslo Open MC Show has it's
home here, of course.
Sometimes bands have their release-parties in our house, and a lot of private
parties for people celebrating their 30, 40 or 50 years anniversaries with
friends and family. And we do of course have our own parties here now and then.
Here's a picture from another meeting held at our
clubhouse. This time represented by NMCU, NFSOK and H-DOCN. We're discussing
new and more liberal laws for choppers. Only 2 days before John was in another
meeting with the Department of Transportation discussing details and more
meetings are to come soon. We now feel we have good success so far in this
matter. Next year you can change whatever you want on a stock bike except
either the engine, or frame, and still keep your old identity. So we hope more
choppers and custom-bikes will be built - by the owners ...
Or just
in plain norwegian - på
godt norsk:
På dette møtet 22 september 2006 diskuteres
høringssvarene fra respektive organisasjoner til endringen i Kapittel 7 i
Kjøretøyforskriften. Kort og godt - behold enten din tidsriktige motor, eller
ramme, og bygg om resten så mye du vil så ofte du vil avgiftsfritt. Ikke så mye
å klage på i høringen da vi nå har fått teksten slik vi ville innen
rimelighetens grenser. Så får vi håpe at praktiseringen av dette blir best
mulig, men dette er saker for våre kommende møter med Vegdirektoratet og SFOOR.
Mer detaljer om dette finnes på NFSOK sine sider.

Kjells Panhead needs some
"minor" modifications. A lot of our bikes looks
like this in the wintertime. More about this later here. Check back soon.
