Three dozen vintage Čechie–Böhmerland motorcycles — often described as the longest in the world — are now on display at Prague’s National Technical Museum. The exhibition marks 100 years since the production of these iconic machines first began.

The bikes, famous for their distinctive colours, unusual construction and unmistakable sound, were built in the Šluknov region in northern Bohemia from the mid-1920s until the outbreak of the Second World War.
