Hi, Everyone, Happy Easter!
North Alabama Vintage Motorcycle Club had a great gathering yesterday, partly due to the awesome weather and (finally!) ;D a rain-free weekend!
Through breakfast, we watched the movie, "The Hogslayer" which documents the racing accomplishments of the Gregory/Christenson drag race team of Sunset Motors in Kenosha, WI.

The race team is famous for having developed the only Norton racing motorcycles to achieve championship status, earning championships in Top Fuel, and being the second race bike to accomplish sub-8s in the quarter mile.
After the meal, we had a ride brief, and then headed out for Barber Motorsports Museum in Leeds.

The meal at Bluegrass BBQ was fantastic, and service was quick and courteous!

From Bluegrass BBQ, it's but a short ride to Barber, and we arrived just in time!

And thereafter, we took a scenic ride back to Cullman, then split up to head our respective ways.
It was a great day's activities, and we're now certified and ready to volunteer for any of Barber Motorsports Park's upcoming events! (https://www.flickr.com/photos/147814917@N06/)
