Went to this today at the old downtown airport. Sorry about the photo quality, forgot the camera so I only had my phone. So "show" in the parking lot was worth a look before going in:


Normally where ever I go I'm the only Triumph, So naturally the third bike I see is a Bonneville, with an America right beside it! It figures I rode the V-Star today!


And others:

Inside the show:
A BSA


I took a picture of the flyer about this one as I was completely unfamiliar with it, but that pitcure was truly lousy.













A couple of Schwinns







One of my favorites:







I really wish this picture was better!





A lot of these were ridden to the show

As recently as a couple of years ago they were flying this occassionally, don't know if they still do

Thanks for posting these pictures of all those great old bikes here, Mark.

And, as an former TWA employee years ago, thanks again for posting those pictures of that old airline's exhibits at that museum back in TWA's old headquarters of KC.



Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

That Velocette made me homesick for my first bike.
