This year, for the first time as an International FIVA event, it will take place in Koper, Slovenia on the 21st and 22nd of April 2023. The first day of the event will be dedicated to the TOMOS heritage with discussions and round tables about TOMOS history and models. On the second day, 200 participants with their TOMOS mopeds, will participate in an 80 km ride along the Slovenian coastline and hinterland.
TOMOS, which stands for TOvarna MOtornih koleS (Motorcycle Company) was a moped manufacturer based in Koper, Slovenia, founded in 1954. TOMOS at first produced mopeds under PUCH license, but later developed their own models, that quickly became the object of desire for numerous teenagers. Models like Colibri, APN 4, and TOMOS Automatic are still popular today among a vast number of enthusiasts.
In 1966 TOMOS opened a factory in Holland, and soon their mopeds became popular also there.
TOMOS popularity was also influenced by the success in motorsport, sepcifically in the 50ccm category.
