no i believe most of those were at the swap meet, but i may be wrong.

Yes there were a lot of people lingering around the CBX. Very cool!

I suspect those VJMC bikes are mostly locals (to Birmingham, that is)...I'm attempting to talk my wife into us retiring to near the Barber Museum...that way I can go every day.

Yes, most of the pictures were from the VJMC paddock. The sweet little gold 350 Scrambler was from up my way. I gave it best of show at a local bike show that I judged earlier in the year. The gentleman has owned it since new and recently spent a lot of money on the total restoration.

...great pictures, lots of awesome iron!

...but, the '69 Blue Streak brings tears to my eyes.

Barber is a place everyone needs to go to at least once in their lives. My wife is indifferent to motorcyles but she LOVED the museum.

The Ace Corner was cool but probably not worth the $10 ea. It cost me $50 bucks just to get a PBR!


On a weird note. We found a holstered small-caliber, semi-automatic between turns two and three on Saturday. If it was anyone's here... we gave it to Security.
