The earlier you get there the better your chance of parking on the south side of N14 st. (where the action is) which is the shady side (such as it is) of the street. But there is still plenty of room on Whythe or Berry street.
Hope I see you there!
Chuck.

That's what happens when you become an "old codger" like myself. Although I haven't been in "rehab" like some of the other workers.  ERC

I'll just have to rest my case on the physical prowess of some of the more elderly workers.  ;D  ERC

It was a fun day.  Great to meet you Chuck and your lovely wife.  We'll get a ride in soon.  Some really great bikes this year.  I too have some not so good pics that I should post later....

  Pretty cool neighborhood as well.What a change! I don't think I saw anyone older than Twenty nine,other than at the show that is.....  We walked over to Green point, I guess it is ? For some outstanding !  Polish food.

  An artist at the show took out his sketch book, and started doing a sketch of my bike... Amazing to watch.

That sketch is great!  I'm an art fanatic and LOVE that piece the artist did.  I saved it and cropped it down to just the art.  Thanks for sharing GHG!

  Yes it was and thanks !  I did that one about five or six years ago. I found it outside of a garage. Where it had sat exposed to the elements, under a tattered table cloth ,for 18 years.  Every nut and bolt ,  taken down to the molecular level... re-due on that one ! LOL !
 I was fortunate to have that one, with another 750 I did.... which btw, I think is nicer and more detailed, and was in similar condition.... In cafe Racer mag back in 2010 ... I think ?  Also at the Javits show of the same year...   Hard work pays off sometimes !  LOL.......

   Whoa !! That is cool Scottie !  Sorry I missed that before...  Thanks for that.  That little camera phone pic is the only one I had.  And I lost the artists card....   Here is The bike(s) in person.... or at least in a photo  ::)
