De Oude Tweewieler keeps its collection on the road

In a private barn in Maartensdijk, old motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles stand alongside advertising, accessories and documentation, accessible by appointment only.

Pre-war motorcycles

The collection focuses on classic and early machines. Compare the frame, drive and controls of two motorcycles and ask which parts are original, replaced or restored.

Stories per machine

A limited number of motorcycles can, for that very reason, be explained in depth. Ask about the owner, use and restoration of one machine.

Riding and winter maintenance

The foundation uses vehicles at events in summer and maintains them in winter. That makes being rideable part of the collecting policy, but not every object has to be operational.

Before you go

There is no weekly schedule: individuals and groups visit free of charge, but only after an appointment has been confirmed.
