AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days



It’s about time I get caught up on some posting, so here goes…



In July of last year I went to the AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days in Lexington, Ohio at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. It was a rainy weekend, bikes were sliding off the track into the grass and people were wading through the mud pit that was the swap meet. Being the hardcore bikers that vintage motorcycle enthusiasts are, despite the torrential downpour, the air was filled with the rumble of classic machines.

The sun finally came out on the last day of the event and we witnessed some great vintage motorcycle racing. Here are some Pictures from the event:

I love cafe racers!

2009 at Vintage Motorcycle days was the year of the BSA

I'm not sure what it is but I like it

My personal favorite: The Triton

A rare Ariel square four sitting in the rain

The unapproachable Norton waiting for it's turn on the track
Time for some racing!

Kenny Cummings on his Seeley Norton. Check out the evolution of this bike on his site: http://www.shelbynyc.com/nycnorton/index.htm


Sidecar racing on vintage BMW's. What a kick to watch.
See you next year!
