That was a lot of recognisable pics being Dutch and now living in Australia. The fire truck is DELWP (State of Victoria) They have quite a fleet of Mog's.
The pictures from the Netherlands speak for themselves. I raced on the old F1 track btw, it is a nice track in the dunes but at that time it had a one corner that was very motorbike unfriendly (as in, if you came of the bike, you would be in the wall immediately) so I preferred the TT track in Assen for riding as it was MotoGP sanctioned and very safe. Maybe that corner has changed now? I do not follow F1 anymore so no clue how it looks like now.

Pretty sure most of the track stayed the same yep. But it is/was relatively narrow compared to some of the new school tracks. Both Zandvoort and Assen are old school tracks. Same goes for Spa and Silverstone. Tracks I have the honour to have ridden. Although the Assen, Spa and Silverstone tracks have a few heart in mouth sections. The last 1/3 of Assen is still seen as scary fast by the MotoGP guys and Spa speaks for itself I guess ;) (so let alone how I mostly felt on the 1000cc Ducati)

Yep, that's the one ;) I thought I mention the name and location as it makes an interesting read. It served in the 1st World War as a hospital ship in the failed campaign in Turkey. It ran a ground when towed to the wreckers. It's about a 3hr drive from my place, including the 15 minute ferry to the island.

Camping on the island last weekend with both my cars.
