Burabike, Kazakhstan

Vi blev i Astana indtil ''Burabike' løb af stabelen, hvilket var en god beslutning, på trods af al det ballede der blev med visa der udløb. På den anden side, med de rigtige venner med de rigtige kontakter, løser alt sig til sidst. Men Burabike var rigtig god; en god festival med omkring 1000 maskiner og 3000 deltagere. Venlige mennesker, søde piger, koldt øl og en masse gode russiske rockbands. Kort sagt en fin fest, meget anbefalelsesværdig. Mød op næste år (www.burabike.kz).

I novembernummeret af Biker Journalen, www.bikerjournalen.no, vil der være en historie fra festivalen, og lidt om mc-kulturen generelt.

We waited in Astana till Burabike was up, and it was indeed a good decision though it was mayhem with visas expiring. However, if you got the right friends the right places, it always sorts out.

Anyhow, Burabike was a highlight. A very good festival, about 1000 bikes and 3000 people. Friendly people, nice girls, cold beer, a lot of very good Russian rock bands. In short a very good party, highly reccomended. Go there next year, www.burabike.kz

In the November issue of Biker Journalen, www.bikerjournalen.no there will be a story from the festival and biker culture in general.

Of course shashlik, it's Kazakhstan after all

Stefan fra Tyskland og en ven fra Omsk. Fine fyre og rigtige bikere, der sandsynligvis bruger flere penge på benzin end på mc-gejl med de 'rigtige' varemærker.

Stefan from Germany and a friend from Omsk. Cool dudes and real bikers that probably spend more money on petrol than on branded motorcycle spinn-off products.

Russisk rock er fedt, og en masse gode berømte bands var hyret til lejligheden.

Russian rock is great, and a lot of good and famous bands were hired for the event
