schleiz.gif The Schleizer Dreieck of today is one of the most beautiful natural race tracks in the world, comparable only to Spa or the Isle of Man. Schleiz was founded as a motorcycle circuit for motorcyclists and the first race held there was in 1923.

Set in the old East Germany, the area harbours a hedonistic love of motorsport which even communism could not destroy.

The new track is a road circuit some 3.8 kms round and quite wide. There is plenty of room to overtake and it is also one of the few tracks that run anti-clockwise. It has a number of different types of corners spread over a height variation of nearly 70 metres with fantastic views even as you are racing. The new circuit is somewhat shorter than the old one but will still have the same appeal.

IHRO was very proud to have supplied the first ever proper race for Classic motorcycles to take place in Germany at the circuit’s 75th anniversary meeting, which was the start of a love affair with the circuit for all the IHRO riders. This meeting has rapidly established itself on the IHRO calendar as the social event of the year, with it’s popularity growing year by year as word spreads among discerning riders. This year we are again delighted to be able to help the AMC Schleizer Dreieck confirm the popularity of this wonderful event.
