It was held at the Downtown Executive Airport in Kansas City, MO. Specifically the Aircraft History Museum there. It was put on by the Heart Of America Motorcycle Enthusiasts (http://hoame.com/).

I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong.

Say Captain,

Thanks for the link.  Some nice photos.

I notice a lot of the old Honda, let's say 250cc Scramblers.  I remember when they were out on the streets in abundance....... and everyone was hot to trot for one of those bikes!  At that time I had the Honda Super Hawk, 305cc.

Sure does bring back memories of all the Triumphs, BSA, AJ Matchless, and even some Ariel Square Fours cruising around.  I love my Honda 750 K4, but I have got to admit, sure do miss the sound of those Brit thumpers!

I was thinking about going to that show, a guy at Grinder's was snapping some pics of my bike in front and told me I should take my bike to it.

Then I thought no, I'd rather ride than go to a show and not ride. I never really understood the whole bike/car show thing.
