Location: tailFinland | Attented to local event today. Big Wheels in Pieksämäki. Rapidly grown to big 3 day event with lots of side events.
Todays drive in car show and cruising took about 1 150 classic cars.
City is small and people cather along the streets to watch the cruising of about thousand cars.
Just like in Västerås exept very tight safety rules. People must be inside the cars, not drinking allowed etc. Not even smoking was allowed at show areas. Somehow it works becouse this is a family event.
There was only about dozen forward lookers out of 1150 cars. meaning they are rare.
