On March 8, 2015, a new and very interesting event the first Sunday of the 74th edition of Daytona Bike Week. Under the initiative of Warren Lane and with the participation of vintage motorcycle lovers and well known builders, Billy Lane, Bill Dodge and Dan Carr, owners of vintage motorcycles (it means pre-70’s models) will gather at Bruce Rossmeyer’s Destination Daytona for a day of camaraderie between owners, builders, restorers and all the fans of old iron. And you are invited…
Named “True Grit”, the Sunday Match 8th event starts at 10 a.m. and will end around 6 p.m. See you there…At the Destination Daytona Pavilion, 1635 North US Highway 1, Ormond Beach, Florida. More info at Carrie Repp.
Excellent idea. Will stop by to meet with these guys and Cyril.
True motorcycles. True builders. What can you ask more?
Cool , sounds like the place to be . I will bring my 1950 FL and join the fun. Nothing like OLD IRON to get the blood pumping …
Great idea! Looking forward to seeing some of the classic iron!
Being of a ‘ certain age ‘ … its a bit disconcerting to realize that now the pre-1970’s is considered ‘ vintage ‘ … that moniker previously having been reserved for pre- 1950’s . Eeesh … first I’m classic … now I’m vintage . So when does ancient come into play ? 😉
TJ.. give it six months.. lol
Using today’s (yammering) demographics as the criterion……
If its got drum brakes, is carburated and requires kick-starting……
Then, anymore, its at last vintage.
As far as a “participant’s age” goes, I’d say anything “pre-dirt-napp” qualifies just fine……. 🙂
-nicker-
Nothing better than “Old” iron relatively speaking
if you’re in the area might be worth a look see ….
I will definitely be going to this and look forward to seeing many of you there.
It’s fun, interesting, education, to see & hear, and gawk at what you may have ridden or rode with friends or obladi, oblada, life goes on!! Will be there.
Just the type of get together Daytona can use more of. Great idea!
I plan on attending with my 1966 Triumph chopper. Sounds like a great event. Bit of a prelude to Willie’s show on Thursday.
Rock on fab idea to feature old iron specifically….next year kickstart contest?
Great Idea ,Will be there
I wouldn’t miss this show for anything. It is going to be a great one for sure
