Visitors could scan QR codes to watch short videos of our colleagues in action. It was also possible to see how the dice (created for this day as a give-away) were manufactured on our milling machine.<br><br>In addition, VHM was present with several motorcycles, where the gold-colored cylinder head was clearly visible. The Peugeot Dakar Classic Team was also present with their Peugeot 405, and the Dakar service truck was on display as well.<br><br>Our team put in a full effort to make it a wonderful day.
