The newly created veteran class also had its final run in Kleinhau.After only 16 participants in Genk, Belgium, there were 31 in Kleinhau. The German cross instructor Jürgen Küppers won the day with 3 race victories, ahead of the Dutchman Jacky Thijssen and the Belgian Wim Couwberghs.However, Jürgen Küppers did not play a role in the championship, as he had not competed in the first event in Belgium.So the championship was between the Belgian Couwberghs and Thijssen.The Belgian Danny Scheers was still able to secure 3rd overall place in the background. As for the veteran class, there was some confusion on social media among some Belgian sports fans who did not understand how the regulations for 2023 had been worked out. Not only were ...(read more)

The last races were last weekend in Kleinhau. The sidecars had their third event there and, as expected, the Swiss riders came with strong teams to support Remo Käser-Cornelio Döring, who had been leading until then. Unfortunately, the interest in this class was not too high this year, so there were only 17 teams in Kleinhau. In the end, it was Käser-Döring who won the title. Fellow countrymen Fabian Hofmann-Marius Strauss could find themselves in second place and the youngest in IMBA sidecar action, Nevio Käser and Jano Käser (12-14) were in the end third to fill the IMBA podium for 2023.

The IMBA Sidecar European Championship enters the final round of the season. The leaders Remo Käser/Cornelio Döring, Switzerland, come to Kleinhau with a 60-point lead over compatriots Fabian Hofmann/Marius Strauss. Also Nevio Käser/Jano Käser, all three teams still have a chance to win the title, with 180 points to be awarded in 3 heats. but also local hero Christian Hentrich/Simon Lenz can have small hopes to break into the top 3 of the championship on their home track. Sunday will show who will take the crown of the IMBA Sidecar European Championship in Kleinhau. There will be a second highlight, however, with the final round of the IMBA Veterans European Championship. After the first race in Belgium, Wim Couwberghs, B, is in the lead, ...(read more)

The IMBA European Championship race in the Czech Republic scheduled for the weekend has unfortunately to be cancelled due to too few participants in the class. It is a pity for the organiser who invests time, effort and also some money in an event and is let down by the riders. We will have to see what happens next for 2024! The championship standings will therefore be based on the 2 IMBA Mx2 races held so far.

The Belgian Mattéo Puffet left no doubt this year who will be the reigning and probably also the coming champion in the Open class. He came to the final race in Switzerland, in Lützelflüh in the Emmental, with a lead of 111 points. His direct rival, the Englishman James Dodd, unfortunately had to cancel his planned trip because his wife had given birth to a baby in the days before. Unfortunately, there were also several other cancellations due to injury. The starting field was then very shrunk, but the present candidates still fought hard for the places. Mattéo set the best time in qualifying, but his compatriot Jonas Salaets managed a start-finish victory in the first heat. Henry Williams from Great Britain followed him in second place, ...(read more)

Hello look at the new video of Mike Allport, here at Videos Youtube.

IMBA holds a Veterans European Championship for the first time. The first event for the 2023 championship was held in Genk, Belgium. It was a pity that not all registered participants made the journey to the race, but the riders present were all positive about this "new" idea to give former IMBA riders the opportunity to take part in a European Championship under the IMBA flag in the "old" manner. There will be a second event this year in Kleinhau, Germany, on 24.09.2023 and we hope for an even stronger starting field. In the end, riders from 3 nations were on the podium and with Wim Crowenberghs in 1st place, the organiser had the day's victory in the bag. Jacky Thijssen from the Netherlands followed in second place and third place ...(read more)

The supply of everything was excellently organised by the club and the Classic organisers, the timing team still worked with the "old" Orbits system, but everything fit and worked to the minute and the transponders worked very well. The process and organisation by ECMO and the timekeeping team was absolutely perfect. The classes were well filled, even though not all the "oldies" had made the journey to the Czech Republic. In the evening there was the award ceremony for the daily classification, which was also the European Championship for the ECMO (European Classic Motocross Organisation). In addition, there was ...(read more)

The fastest qualifier, reigning champion Matteo Puffet from Belgium, had some great duels with James Dodd from England and Kristof van Vaerenbergh from Belgium.

In Kleinhau on Friday at the Night Cross in the Classic Oldtimer races, points were also at stake for a "new" IMBA European Championship for the Oldies. In the meantime the groups have been put together from the race results, firstly there are the Classic-OldtimerPer65-74 who are younger than 60 and then the Pre65-74 who are older than 60.

The IMBA Board wishes all members, sports friends and all people in the world, a Merry Christmas.

The delegations of the countries had arrived in large numbers. The chairman of the IMBA, Benoit Malta, welcomed everyone and briefly described the problems of the last season 2022. Some events had to be cancelled and the participation of the riders was much lower than in the years before Corona. Certainly, the financial situation at the moment, travel costs etc. is also a reason for the lower number of participants. However, many of the young riders do not know what it means to take part in an IMBA European Championship race. In the amateur sector, this European championship is certainly one of many championships advertised, but the IMBA European championship is not just about one event, as is the case with many other organisers, but it ...(read more)

German double victory at the home GP of the IMBA European Championship Open Class in Wisskirchen.

Dennis Platt and Pit Rickert took the starting positions 1 and 2 in front of the Belgian Jonas Salaets and Denis Wagemans as well as their compatriot Mattéo Puffet.

Too bad, too bad: Cancellation of the European Championship event of the Open class in Holice Czech Republic on 22.05.2022! Unfortunately, the interest in participation is so low that the organiser has cancelled this class from his event. Of course it is a difficult time at the moment, everything has become more expensive and the interests after a 2 year break may have changed. But we should all try not to let the IMBA European Championship die. Let's hope that there will be better registration figures for Wisskirchen on 05.06. 2022.

For the first race in the Czech Republic on 22.05.2022, in Holice, I ask the riders to still register on the "old" website in time. Surely we all want to have a good IMBA European Championship team again soon and so I ask all federations to do their utmost to send riders to the events or to inform the IMBA secretary in time if they cannot participate.
