By Mozart Ballesteros for El Desmarque<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Motorcycles are a forbidden love for many athletes. The clause that prohibits them from engaging in certain activities prevents them from enjoying this type of riding. However, some players have ignored this possibility and decided to acquire one. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Xabi Alonso<\/strong><\/a>, and David Beckham<\/strong><\/a> are several examples. While the Briton followed the outlined restrictions throughout his career by driving cars, once retired, he has been seen on a motorcycle, changing the situation once he hung up his boots. The Spanish company Cafe Racer Dreams, CRD, has been requested on occasion by the Englishman for custom motorcycles.<\/p>\n

Cafe Racer Dreams, custom motorcycles from Madrid<\/strong><\/p>\n

Its president, Jaime Colsa<\/strong><\/a>, and its head mechanic, Marcos Castro, are two important names in the company. The former, with extensive experience in transportation and logistics after working for multinational companies such as UPS or DB Schenker. Additionally, a person who went from being a client to becoming the CEO of the company, as revealed in El Confidencial<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

A company that since 2010 seeks to make each of its motorcycles a unique piece. They are created, as they revealed in Esquire<\/strong><\/a>, through the collaboration between the brand’s experts and the client. All carried out through a handmade process in which attention to detail is paramount, with quality protocols that consist of three stages: during the purchase of the base motorcycle, before the assembly of parts, and in the final test. All of this with one final premise: that the client achieves the motorcycle of their dreams.<\/p>\n

\"custom<\/p>\n

A result that most commonly has the BMW R model as its base, considering it “the best line of motorcycles built by this brand in the 70s and 90s.” A product that combines the history behind the motorcycle and the one the owner will create with the help of the company.<\/p>\n

These motorcycles have reached the hands of various clients, such as cyclist Simon Gerrans<\/strong><\/a>, who was looking for “a single-seat CRD in which, occasionally, he could take his son.” This led the company to create a piece that could be easily added to the product, allowing him to share the ride with his son.<\/p>\n

Jaime Colsa went from being a client to the CEO<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, they also found clients in the world of football, such as Xabi Alonso or David Beckham. “He explicitly requested a CRD to shoot a commercial for Biotherm,” referring to the request made by the former Manchester United player. An advertisement that meant great visibility for the company’s motorcycles. To the extent that it became a turning point for sending motorcycles worldwide.<\/p>\n

In fact, in 2021, they decided to open branches in North America and the Middle East. Thanks to this, they could recount the place where they encountered the most complications in sending a motorcycle. “Vladivostok<\/strong><\/a>, nothing less than in the far east of Russia,” he commented, adding that although they succeeded, “the process was not exactly a bed of roses.” A series of anecdotes that, since the English player entered their lives, made a leap to other markets, but always with the hallmark of their motorcycles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
