Das MZ Forum für MZ Fahrer

Hello everyone. I'm trying to make plans for the next year through October and I would like to hear some ideas of the best MZ gatherings or oldtimer events to attend in Germany. As I currently live in Northern Italy, all events are quite a drive for me but if I plan them out in advance it shouldn't be problem. Of course since I'm more interested in East German Military vehicles, I would like to know where and when the best shows are that focus on these type vehicles.

Thanks in advance, Paul

Hello,

maybe you should visit Pütnitz Museum if you are interested in East German Military vehicle.

good idea! There you can visit the Museum with a lot of MZ Bikes.

It depends a bit on what exactly you're interested in. Here are a few general tips that come to mind:

Historic military vehicle meetings where you'll find NVA equipment are in Finowfurt, Jüterbog and Pütnitz to name a few places. Those three are between April and June.

The fall meeting at the Augustusburg is a good opportunity to see motorcycles from East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Poland etc. from active riders and in the museum itself. Around that time is the Veterama in Mannheim, a very large open-air fair for anyone interested in the sale and trade of sometimes dubious spare parts and other stuff pertaining to old cars and motorcycles, mostly from the western hemisphere.

These are a mere scratch on the surface of an almost unfathomable number of meetings and events open to the public in Germany that are centered around oldtimers that mostly happen throughout the warmer part of the year. There are of course events that cater more to the wonderful world of Iron Curtain motoring and two stroke socialism than others. If that's what you're looking for then you really don't need to look much further than the former GDR. There are plenty of oldtimer events in the west and in the south, but they often have next to nothing as far as East German stuff goes.

Thanks everyone, I wish I could attend one every weekend. The East German motorcycle (or even other German motorcycles) scene is not the best here in Italy, at least what I've seen. As you would guess the shows focus mostly Italian bikes.

Thanks for the insights. I can start making some plans.

Maybe you should also visit one of our Forumstreffen.
We usually got two every year, one in spring and the other one in summer.
Here some pictures of these year´s Forumstreffen:

If your're also interested in dirtbikes, you should definitly visit the "Classic Enduro Zschopau" event. This year on 30th of June. Lots of classic MZ dirtbikes!
