The AMA annual Vintage Motorcycle Days is a fabulous meet on many
levels. Every moment there is a vintage adventure of some kind. There
seems to be an endless stream of riders going by on vintage motorcycles
with big smiles on their faces.
This was the 50th year for the Sportster so it was the celebrated
marque and there were many fine examples being ridden around and
a special display in an infield tent.
There was also an excellent display of
the Spanish Ossa marque by the Ossa owners club in another infield tent.
There were vintage
road races and vintage motocross and trials races and a vintage auction
to enjoy. I arrived on my BMW K75 on Thursday evening and left early
Sunday morning. In between I walked miles and miles and took more than
5000 photos of anything vintage I came across.
I covered the infield, the
road racer sites, the motocross sites, the Sportster display, the
Ossa display, the swap meet area and the many riders out and about.
We have sorted through our photos and carefully picked
out as many as we could fit on a CD (3100 photos). We believe these photos will
give a real sense of what it was like to be there. If you are down in the
dumps with the midwinter blues and like vintage bikes
this CD will give you lots of smiles. Or maybe you were at MidOhio
and want to refresh you
memory and see if you missed anything. Or maybe you
are thinking of going next year and want to see what it is like.
Whatever your vintage inclinations you will enjoy this photo collection.
Because of the shear number of bikes covered in this collection
we limit any single bike to 5 or fewer photos and emphasize variety.
To see more detail of specific kinds of bikes we recommend our detailed
CDs/DVDs collections such as the
Sportster/Harley or Triumph 2007 collections where up to 16 views are shown
of each bike.
