tntmo 887 Posted May 5, 2023 Might be a fun event to go watch the auction live? I'll only bring a small portion of my personal fortune along, can't buy too many bikes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I say, ride the Kawi Dream to the Midwest this summer and visit the Museum one last time 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tntmo 887 Posted May 5, 2023 A sub three hour marathon is very respectable, I may be able to do it if I changed my diet of beer, ice cream and candy and also trained. Sounds like something that I will never do. I’ve never ridden a motorcycle older than 1960’s models. Would like to take a spin on one of those early models.

Riding a Pre-1960s motorcycle sounds a lot more fun than running 26 six minute miles after sacrificing beer, ice cream and candy But, can that ancient bike make the 26 miles without breaking.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

June thru Sept at the moment is packed with Moto trips already. My only trip east though will be a fly and rent. I won’t be traveling the Midwest at all.

kkug 146 Posted August 6, 2023 I stopped at the Museum. Very nice, too bad it is closing. Most likely family matters as it is a private thing. Too bad they could not relocate to to something like Sturges or Vegas. Very well done and a lot to look at. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
