The motorbike was born at the same time as the car; Enrico Bernardi himself fitted a petrol engine to his son's tricycle, which can be considered to all intents and purposes the first rudimentary motorbike. With the advent of the motorbike, the myth of the centaur materialised: man is at one with the mechanical horse, a kind of fascinating identification that irresistibly appeals to the imagination. Like the automobile, the motorbike is intended for the wealthy as well as the daring. The Museum tells the history of motorbikes with 100 unobtainable exhibits: the first velocipedes, the first scooter, the first generation motorbikes, the recent breathtaking racing machines. An itinerary for enthusiasts, for romantics, for experts, for those who dream of Easy Rider or love the thrills of the track. If two wheels are your passion, the Museum will surprise you.
