While on a business trip that took me to Birmingham, AL this week I had the chance to stop by the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum.

I visited it two years ago as well and it was just as enjoyable the second time round. I knew I had to see it again if for no other reason than to get the obligatory T-shirt. There are something like 750 motorcycles on display, plus just as many in storage or being restored. I was told that since I was there last they changed out about 100 bikes on display. Thought I would post a few photos in the Gallery Section for your viewing pleasure:

What a beautiful facility! I was there a couple of years ago and would recommend anyone to go. The day I was there the place was pretty much empty and the security guard gave me a really informative tour of the museum and grounds.  :good2:

The annual Vintage Festival there is a "must see" if you have even the slightest interest in old bikes.
It is worth the trip just to look through the car park area at what people rode there, the place is full of exotica.
