Dallas does Sweden is a blog written by the expert US vet rider Dallas Nyblod.

Background, Dallas and his riding buddy Jeff May where invited to stay and race the major vmx event in sweden by a good friend of mine, named Leif Sundin. This Leif actually sold me my maico and we knew each other from way back in school.

They came and Leif hosted them in his home and provided Dallas with a brand new NOS built Yamaha 360 1974 clogged with genuine factory parts. A priceless one of a kind. They participated in one of the biggest vintage event there is. The annual race in Linköping. Besides mx there is vintage road racing, trial and speedway. Something like Mid Ohio.

Unfortunately, a little bike problem and an injury stopped Dallas from beeing able to try to come out on top, but he had the speed well in line with the fastest riders.

I took some pics at the event and of some bikes:
