I attended this show a few years ago & it was a good time. The show is much larger now & has a bit of everything from Rat-Bikes to high end Customs & Restorations. Admission is free I believe & worthy of your time if you like bikes. Don't forget your camera.

I went a few years ago as well, and it definitely was a great show.   :good2:

What I liked most, was that they had a little bit of everything: street, dirt, custom, and vintage.  Also, this isn't a commercialized show such as the IMS.  Everything on display is someone's pride and joy.  The ingenuity, craftsmanship, and originality that are put into many of these machines is pretty amazing.

Bummer. Could use something like that on a -2F day here.

Portland, OR though. It might as well be on the moon.

Yep, temps in the 50's(F) here, and the sun is out and shining.  Do we go to the show, or ride.

That's like the rockerbox bike fest in Milwaukee. Rockerbox. Wasn't as pretty. And had more wierdness. Chicks in chainmail. But they moved it to Road America. And it lost a lot. Still awesome show and vintage racing to watch.

If it were 50 here, I'd be working on a bike at the minimum, maybe don the heated gear and go for a quick spin too.
