Daytona Biketoberfest. Willie’s Tropical Tattoo Old School Chopper Time Show.


Who is in Daytona for Biketoberfest? Most of those participating and the usual “suspects” of the industry (builders, opinion leaders, press) gathered at Willie’s Tattoo Chop for 5 hours of old school bike building exhibition. The show is as much about the audience than about the bikes and the “Willie’s Happening” happened again. The only negative: too many admirers around the bikes to be able to shoot them in full. So, just a few “about clean” close-ups…(bike on which I sit by Bill Dodge, Bling Cycles. photo Cyril Huze, Roadside Marty, Bill Dodge by Valerie Smith)
