After a police check revealed that Stefan Barlian's tires were no longer in order, the license plates were removed on the spot. The long-time ÖAMTC member then wanted to have his car towed away by the motorists' club - but they didn't help him.

Stefan Barlian is a real fighter. The 71-year-old from Gschwandt is currently battling cancer (liver and bowel). Despite this, he still regularly gets on his bike and does boxing. But what happened to him just under a week ago was the last straw.
