Wished I was able to make it – you could spend hours just admiring all the bikes and photo’s – Great job everyone involved with the show – Keep it up.
It was fun interviewing a number of this years builders on the show along with Michael. See you next year for sure.
A really awesome exhibit . The bikes reflect the personalities of their builders just as a painting reflects the personality of the artist. I showed my students the bikes built by those I consider close personal friends, discussed what we saw before us and then took time to reflect on their lifestyles and the events in their lives that led them to this particular build. There is a lot of artistic vision and insight in our industry, and sometimes we get so caught up in the horsepower and speed that we miss the little details that are the artistic form and vision. Thanks for the show.
