I'll be there with the KZ - about a 2-hour ride from here! Have been there several times to the "Mad Dogs & Englishmen" car show with my MGB. I agree - it is the perfect location for a car or bike show. Great weather forecast too!

Hey Eric(Limey),
I think that was that your orange 650 in the show? It was a good show! More people than last year. A few Kawasaki's but wish there would have been more of course

Yep - that was mine! The only KZ650 on display! It is always a great show at the Gilmore - cars or bikes, but what a great day for the ride out and back! Went with friends on two Triumphs (new) - and had a blast - just got home. Tired, but very content. Bike ran great and the highlight of the day was a guy in a beat up old pickup, tatoos all the way up his arm, leaning out the window of his truck giving me a "thumbs up" - ya can't beat that!

Bummer, just found out about this event looking at pics of the race we were at just down the road at US 131. Looks like it is a good one,way to go with the 650 Limey.
www.dragbike.com Look for the Pics/Results thread on US131 under AMA Dragbike forum in Discussion. Some pics from Gilmore in there and some very nice other bikes as well.

I'm trying to get a copy of the photograph of a BICYCLE (yes, as in Huffy, etc) with a JET ENGINE! No, I am not joking! It had to be the loudest wheeled vehicle I have ever heard!

I was at the AMA/Dragbike event at U.S. 131 myself. Awesome racing. Some of those guys are fearless on those new rockets.
