Can't go on Saturday. So I think I will go both Friday and Sunday.

I went Friday and enjoyed it. A lot of the usual stuff but definitely some bikes worth checking out. They have the Kawi H2 street and race to look at, would've been cool to sit on it but not allowed. Some motogp bikes, 3 wheeled "cars" and both old vintage bikes and unusual custom ones throughout the aisles to look at. Jason Britton does his stunt show. Suzuki has a leaned bike you can sit on and get a photo, you know so you look like a pro racer dragging a knee, you have to sign a waiver to do it! And plenty of drawings to win things. Vince got to sit on the new bike he's buying so I hopped up on the passenger seat to see what's in store for me haha it wasn't much. I liked being able to sit on a Marquez bike and get photos on that too!

Have a good time when you go!

The show was fun. 

The Harley electric prototype was intriguing, and you could ride it on dyno-like rollers. Interesting talking to the guy who built/designed it.

The Ducati Panigale 1299 and new BMW S1000RR are both spectacular. 

Both the old and custom bikes were well presented and worth seeing, as well as the scattered race bikes.
