Welcome
Dear fans, friends, visitors, and guests of Glemseck 101. The Glemseck 101 team and Motorrad Magazin MO looking forward to welcoming you to Glemseck 101 for round 18 of Glemseck 101 Admission is free throughout the entire weekend, including the dealer mile, stage program, and the 1/8 mile grandstand – thanks to our numerous exhibitors, dealers, and sponsors, as well as the support of the city of Leonberg and the Böblingen district. The location Glemseck represents pure motorsport tradition in southern Germany. Until the 1960s, two- and four-wheeled motorsport legends competed in exciting races on the legendary Solitude racetrack around Glemseck .
The Hotel Glemseck, with its location directly on the former race track, forms the center of the "Glemseck" and has thus also served as the focal point of the Glemseck 101 event since its first round in 2006. For decades, it has been a meeting point for motorcyclists and enthusiasts of traditional automobiles of all classes and looks back on over 100 years of history, which has always been closely linked to the historic racing on its doorstep.
The Glemseck 101 is the successful continuation of this tradition. A cross-brand motorcycle event lasting three days and two long nights. Over seventeen successful years, a “Spirit of the 101” has developed, which has become firmly established in the German and European motorcycle scene and is cultivated with great care by us, the Glemseck 101 event team.
