Often these smaller companies played the most daring set of cards with wild designs and custom engines. īut they left a legacy, something to be enjoyed. As well as the competition and the Trial Superstars some areas of this web are about the men and women who put their heart and soul into making trial motorcycles, and for one reason or another ,one day ,had to stop. This poster was just right for the moment. The poster summed up the huge disappointment that he would have felt when it died. The poster just sums up perfectly the love that Jordi Rabasa had for his company, Mecatecno. It was perfect for the moment and really meant something. The closure of these factories was the end of the dream for these men.
This wonderful time in trials comes with heart ache as well. The poster just summed up everything perfectly to me.
Behind me a poster on the wall caught my eye. It was probably much the same as when the Mecatecno factory was running opposite. The white gloss ceilings and walls turned yellow years ago. It was and still is a very small dingy, smoke veiled dated room with yellow nicotine stained walls and ceiling. Not wanting to leave so soon I wandered into this workers cafe. Just across the parking area from the factory was a small cafe. When I first located the Mecatecno factory in Barcelona I stood outside and took some photos and got a good sense and feel for the place.
