The parking lot is almost as interesting as the show..

vtwin · 06-27-2011, 06:36 PM

Finally to the show bikes...

Diesel conversion.

vtwin · 06-27-2011, 06:49 PM

Some little bikes...

I really liked this little Excelsior..

Really interesting bike...

vtwin · 06-28-2011, 06:18 PM

Still more...

Wow, a Maser bike!

While I was leaving I spotted this...

vtwin · 07-24-2011, 03:51 PM

Rebuiler's award reminded me that I forgot to post the awards given. Sorta like the "Piston Cup".

Today we had our Club BBQ. Nice bikes showed up.

Of course I brought the mighty Tempter!

and neat little oil cap detail...

It was a really nice day and I thank the hosts for opening up their beautiful home to us. Wish my place was this nice.

Yesterday I went to this.

http://www.motorcyclemonster.com/events/ride-to-ragged-point-2011-10-07-San_Luis_Obispo-CA.html

Left about 6:30 in the morning. Not much to see on the road, but always wanted to stop in here. Too bad they were closed.

Took about 4 hours to get there, but it was worth it.

Craig Vetter was there along with Clement Salvatori, no papparazzi shots though. Here is Craig's creation though.

They had slow races too, the Triumph won.

Puruse the picts of bikes...

Definitely not my style.

But this I like!

Made by Kiwi Bikes, new old Indian. http://www.kiwiindian.com/ Very cool! The giveaway is the front disc.

vtwin · 10-09-2011, 01:04 PM

Here's another type of disc that stops you, from buying things any road!

Brace of bikes..

Not sure if this is the Steve McQueen bike..

Pretty bike, too much for my cheapass...

Oooo, shiny....

vtwin · 10-09-2011, 01:09 PM

Not sure why this Suzuki also has a tax disc, guess it's an import.

vtwin · 10-09-2011, 01:28 PM

I found to be the most interesting bike there. Never heard of it, but I know little so no surprise.

After the show, my daughter and I walked around the San Luis Obispo downtown area.

Time to get some food.

The salmon was one of the best I've tasted and the salmon bisque was superb! Everything was good. Good end to the day. Our table was on the back patio and overlooked the creek.

Heading home was pretty uneventful and got home around 10pm.

vtwin · 11-19-2011, 11:05 PM

Went to the International Motorcycle Show today.

First thing I found interesting.

An Allstate for the Allstate booth.

You could win this....

Interesting fairing.

A Buell!
