6 | TORSTEN ROBBENS, LE MANS & EV Motorcycles Are Drugs: Conversations In Motion

    • Society & Culture

Torsten Robbens is the youngest team manager to win the 24 Hours of LeMans, and with his twin brother Bjorn acquired Saroléa and developed a modern electric bike to race the Isle of Man TT. Torsten has been riding motorcycles with Bjorn since they were 4 years old, planting a mechanical seed of curiosity in them both. 




Torsten regales us with his career arc, from riding a 50cc moped to England for a lowly apprenticeship to working with Hollywood A-listers on motorcycle stunt bikes, with his impressive Le Mans accomplishments in between. We were also jazzed to talk to a fellow Belgian!
