What’s there to do?

Open Hok Evening – 10 September

Every Tuesday evening at 20:00, MSG has its weekly ‘hok evening’ (hokavond), where we meet for a drink, some wrenching, and a lot of bike-related banter. Come visit our workshop (“het hok”), located underneath the stairs to the sports centre, and join us for a drink! The open hok evening is the perfect opportunity to talk to some members and find out more about wrenching and MSG. Snacks will be provided! The entrance is through the bicycle shed on the left side of the stairs. See you there!

The open hok evening has since passed, but you’re always free to drop by on any other tuesday evening!

Intro trial – 11 September

Try out motorcycle trials at the MotorSportsGroup of the University of Twente and get to know this unique discipline of motorsports! No driving license or experience is needed. Open for all UT and Saxion students who are interested in becoming a member of the MotorSportsGroup.

Wrenching course – November-December February-March

At the end of every year, MSG organises a wrenching course where we, over the course of six evenings, tackle just about everything there is to know about motorcycle maintenance. Here you can learn how to work on motorcycles, and directly apply your new knowledge to your own bike, all in the luxury of the MSG’s very own workshop! Due to high demand, we will organise a second course this year which starts on February 3rd.
