The Bulto family last night launched 2 electric road bikes at St Pancras Renaissance hotel on Euston road in London . This area of London was like Barcelona on festival night . It was absolutely an absolutely brilliant night.

A lot of the old Bultaco factory faces were there , World Champions , snr FIM representatives ,Comerfords staff ,financiers , collectors , the girls, the rose tinted beautiful old family videos , the bikes . What a night !!

Best doooo in a long time .... well, since the last good do :).

I'll post some pics up soon

I rarely get any fancy motorcycle doos in my calender . This was a great opportunity, so jumped at it.

For me the sentimental rose tinted look back videos from the Bulto's family collection were just priceless and the highlight of the launch. It brought a tear to many an eye.

Ive been promised some videos from the night ,so am just waiting for those.

I managed to capture the tail end of this video and and have uploaded it. You can find the link on a short report on my hobby website ive created about the night .

What a location. The bikes looked impressive and my favourite was the one to the left with the alloy side casing.

Ok ,its not trials but it is Bultaco .

Impressive power , 200 km on a charge .At garage forecourt charging supplies the new Bultaco will charge in 15 minutes whilst your having a coffee.

There gathering was 95% Spanish with only a sprinkle of Brits and a Fin :)

Daniel Bulto and Pete Hudson . Pete was competition manager at Comerfords. He really enjoyed the night. Daniel is a top top guy and does his Grand Father Paco credit.

Ines, Paco's youngest daughter was also there.
