MZ RE 125

When we picked up the Doppelport and the Pitty (oh and a MZ ES250/0 just to fill up the extra space) we stopped off at the Augustusburg bike museum just up the road from Zschopau. Starting with a Hildebrand & Wolfmülle the collection shows the development of the local bike industry through DKW to MZ, IWL and Simpson, as well as other prewar German manufacturers and a small collection from other countries. It also has probably the best collection of DKW and MZ race bikes. Acres of hand beaten ally to be seen, as in this 1956 MZ RE125.
