Thanks for comment, Franco. Pretty heavy H-D & Indian; wanted to have some British there. Only sold 1 more thing, that went too cheap but wasn't there to make money. Got quite a few new members that day.I went to the swap meet yesterday. As it was the first one put on it was a smaller event. It probably was also affected by the flooding around the state.
The hall was about 3/4 full. What was nice to see was the quality of what was being sold. No junk. I bought 3 books with information on single cylinder Nortons from the 30s to the 60s for a fair price. The people selling were easy to talk to. If I see information for it again next year, I will try to go as i enjoyed taking the back roads for awhile before getting on the interstate for the rest of the drive back to the house.
Several guys from up here are going to Fredricksburg, wish I could. If you know Stanley in that chapter, tell him I said Hi.Glad you had a good time. I hope the AMCA swap meet in Fredericksburg is at least as good. I will report back on it.
Cheers
John in Texas
Got back from Fredericksburg yesterday. Lots and lots of HD and Indian stuff for sale with a little bit of British and Japanese thrown in. Nice show with many interesting bikes. Counted 4 Norton's, all Commando's. Visited the NTNOA booth and bought $20 worth of tickets for the bike raffle at LOP this fall.
Nice pics, ground here is white again, but snow will be gone before 20th - maybe go on the flood run to meet friends from twin cities.
Flood Run from near St Paul down river road to Winona & back. Charity for childrens cancer hospital. Started by 12 guys that rode to Winona to help sandbag in '65 flood. I prefer county roads, but u don't see Miss River that way.Flood run! That doesn't sound like something I would want to do. Hope your friends are doing OK, it's been a stinker of a spring in the mid-west that's for sure.
