Just got back this afternoon from AMA Vintage Days. Man, three days of old bikes, racing, worlds largest swap-meet, and , oh yeah, did I say bikes. There was every kind of bike ever made, DKW, Penton, Ossa, KTM, Harley (lots of sportsters), Aprilla, Ducati, Laverda, and many, many more. Yes there were even BMWs there. Saw several R65s including one silver R65LS which I passed on the way in. The Sportster was the featured marque and there were lots of nice ones in attendance. I really enjoyed walking around the pit area and eyeballing the racers. My favorite was a R65LS (of course) in Henna red and hopped up to the max. It looked great flying around that racetrack passing those "other" motorcycles. Spotted one of the R65 T-shirts, but was to far away to catch up to him. Quite a few bike riders from my area (Ashland, Ky) were there and we all got together from time to time to chat and have refreshments. If you have never been to AMA Vintage days and love motorcycles, you should really try to go there next year. It is located at Mid-Ohio race car course near Lexington, Ohio. Dew.
