Took of best of class today at a local show.
« on: July 22, 2006, 01:49:43 PM »
Was kind of cool. I woke up this morning with no intention of showing the bike. With the morning consumed with the biz and delivering three bikes.. I decided to check out this small local show.

After I walked around and assessed the competition. I decided to go back and get the bike and show it. In the end I went away with a best of class trophy.

Not bad really. Next year we will be taking our Cafe's out to the show.

Now I am torn between the Blues Festival Bike and car show here in Reedsburg and the vintage Iola show in the next few weeks.

Congrats on best of class.  It must be a great feeling to walk around and say damn I gotta get my bike, I can win something here.  It must suck to be the guy who has it in the bag to you come rolling in.  Screw em someones gotta lose. :'(

What was the "class" Cheapy?

I entered my 500 in our local show and the only class available was "Japs" so I was up against super-turbo-nitro-busa thingies...
