The Detroit Triumph people do put on a good show. There is a motorcycle show going on at the park also, so you get more than your money's worth.
I'll be there with our 2007 MCS and 1966 MGB Roadster. If you get a chance look me up.

Rode by the show on my bike and saw your car there. Interesting choice for your mirrors, but why the warning sign to stay away from them?

Because they're none powered and I got tired of blind, inconsiderate people and their kids walking into them or bending them...:impatient

Wasn't I there to say hello?

Sorry I didn't say "Hi". I think if you were there at the time, then you were talking with someone. I was in a big hurry to see everything before pedaling home to see the Lions/Raiders game at 4:00.
