Title: 2023 Barber Vintage Motorcycle Festival
Post by: klaviator on October 01, 2023, 04:06:17 PM
The Barber VMF is coming up this weekend Fri-Sun Oct 6-8.

The Motorcycle Alabama booth will be at the normal spot in the swap meet section again this year.  Spots K10-12.  If you have any old MC stuff you'd like to donate for sale it will help pay for the spot for next year.  Just bring it to the booth.

I hope to see ya'll there.

I hope to see y'all there. I'll be dividing my time between helping Norton Manx Racing https://nortonmanxracing.com/  and Norton Hill. Plus everything else that pulls me in every direction there.  :D

It was perfect this year! If you missed it, you missed a really great time.  It was great to see friends I hadn't seen in a few years.  It made us all remember the days when we rode together more than we do now.   Thank you to everyone who came by- some of you rode a long way!

Thanks to the ones that plan, setup, man/woman the merch, teardown, packaway and store everything to do it all over again next year.

I wasn't there long, but it was great to see everyone again. I'll have some pics from my weekend. It was a good one and being able to attend Vintagefest as the kickoff was the best.

A big thanks to karla and everyone else who makes the MC-AL booth possible.  It was great seeing everyone again.  it would be great if we could make that happen more than just the first weekend in october.
