Antique Truck show photos
« on: July 18, 2009, 10:27:22 PM »
Wife and I got on our bikes today and headed to a truck show held at a Forestry Museum.
Enjoy if your into this stuff ;D

I guess this counts as a "Photo of your bike on the road?


This one is kind of special. It was purchased in 67 for $51,000 by Mac & Blo and went on display at the 1967 Montreal Expo before it even hit the bushes of BC.
"Notice the special 67 Expo on the hood 8)



Something about this snout I LOVE. Must come from my love of a 65 Econo van I had once.



There's something about a woman who will ride her own bike to a truck show 8) 8) ;D


















And yes, we took the train RIDE!! ;D ;D ;D

Great pics!
The guys who drove those old trucks all day were tough fellows, I'd say.
Thanks for posting.

Nicee looking trucks. I prefer 1960's instead of the really old ones.

Agreed...a special women to ride her bike to a truck show.  She is a keeper.  Those kind of relationships last a life time.  Thanks for the neat pics!!!  My wife and I took the Goldwing to Saulte St. Marie and into Canada a few years ago to ride the Canyon Train.  We rode north along Lake Superior a ways.  Very pretty area.

Like Johnie said, Seaweb, looks as if you got a "keeper" there mate. Bikes, trucks, it doesn't get much better.
