Its the AHRMA Mid-Atlantic and ACR opening weekend. Lots of vintage bikes will be there. Walking through the pits and checking out the bikes and chatting with the owners of them is one of the best parts of it. You'll see a lot of moto-history.

Do it!

Ask questions. Most vintage dudes are very eager to share.

Bring some money in case you catch the vintage bug so you can pick up a bike and join the racing at the next one!

Last weekend at Lackeys race was a great example of that.

Go over to Old School Moto to the Brad Lackey race thread and checkout all the pics.

Myersdork is right, or is he left?
Seriously, you need to take the kid and explain how fast the guys that rode those bikes in their prime really were. You would need to know that though.

Not sure if I should recommend it or not. Kind of like getting someone to try "crack" or something. Kind of addicting. I remember my first time.......now look at me.

The only thing I see wrong here is that stupid car that is disrupting your workspace.

You could always knock down a wall that leads into your house to expand your garage.
Who needs a kitchen anyway?

yep, put that 4-wheeler out in the driveway, and you could have room for a Maico! Wink

Yup you need to go! Take a ton of pictures & ask lots of questions!

Just don't take a ride on one of those old bike's or like Newmann said you'll be hooked!

Ok you can take a small ride on a CZ or any of the older Jap stuff, just don't ride a good Bultaco or a Maico or you will be screwed!
