Barber 2014

Post by Larry Zimmer »

Apologies for being so late to post from this year's Barber Vintage Festival. A smashing good time. Friday and Saturday were jammed! (Sunday a bit slower.) Bigger than ever, overall. The swap meet was full; and, with some good vendors. The commercial vendor arena continues to grow. Racing was outstanding: this is a premier AHRMA event. The paddock was full. We had good weather, again, with just a touch of rain. (Not enough to mess anything.) In all, there were approx. 15 known ICOA members attending in a quasi organized manner. (It was not a formal club event.) I know of at least a few others who were there that did not make it to any of the group gatherings.

I've included some miscellaneous photos below. Much great hardware to keep you busy looking for three days.

Thanks for the pics, Larry.
I think Barber has moved to the top of my motorcycle Bucket List.

It is a bit of a 'haul' from St. Catherine, Steve. That said, the museum, itself, is certainly worth the visit. For motorcycle buffs, it is awesome! And, if possible, it's good to combine it with the Vintage Festival weekend. We'll see how next year does.

Yes Larry, great photos and thanks for posting them. I will be there next year for certain. Cool event.

Did any of you guys end up buying parts or bikes or anything at the swap meet?

I think the BMW R32 is Craig Vechorik's. One of the very few early BMW's left. I think his is a 1924 or -25 8)
