It goes without saying that Henry didn't take off quietly
on the signature bike. The send-off was celebrated with a
kick-off presented by BMW Motorrad in proper style with
a Pure & Crafted Barbecue at Festsaal Kreuzberg in Berlin.
There, guests were treated to Pure & Crafted essentials:
motorcycle culture, new heritage lifestyle, a smashing
BBQ and other delicacies as well as a decent amount of
handmade music, of course.
Alongside performances by rock bands The
Picturebooks, Rews (from London) and Trixie Trainwreck,
there was also the legendary punk rock karaoke, a favourite
amongst festival-goers in 2016. In between performances,
visitors were invited to explore the exhibition space with
its extraordinary custom motorcycles, leather products by
Ondura and Tony's Munich, jewellery and accessories by
Süssmaedchen, natural clothes by Usaato, and exclusive
helmets by Cafe Racer 69. Other booths included Craftrad
magazine and the Barber Shop indulging festival-goers on
location.
As in previous years, the festival is thrilled to support
the Movember Foundation, an organisation committed to
changing the face of men's health, with donations gath-
ered during the event.
