Great show. Hope some can make it out. You'll see a variety of bikes, mostly vintage, but a few newer ones too.

Pics from 2010 (2011 was even better, just don't have photos)

Hear you had an interesting ride home, Ray! The trip out there was the nicest I've had this year.

Hi Rich, sorry for the super late response.

Yes, had a bit of problem about 10 miles from Stockbridge. Stopped to get fuel and the GoldWing wouldn't start, no lights, no nothing. Checked the battery by bypassing the starter solenoid, and had power. Next, wiggled the wiring harness going to the switch, and the lights came on. Just needed string, wire tie or ??? to hold the harness towards the triple tree. Went inside and the owner had 4 small nylon ties and that did the trick - got me home  :)

Next day found two of the contacts on the ignition switch were loose. Ended finding a used switch at the local salvage yard, and installed.
