Title: Got to show my Interceptor at a big show in Portland, Oregon last week.

The One Motorcycle Show.
Only Enfield in the show. (http://the1moto.com)
Roland Sands was there with two bikes.
Kenny Dreer (revived Norton with modern new design) was there with his drag bike.
We had our bikes shot by a pro photographer.

The underlying concept of the show was bikes with a story. There was everything from high-end customs (Roland Sands, Deus Ex Machina, Lossa Engineering, Kenny Dreer...) to trashed out dirt bikes and rat jobs, and anything between.
Mine had a story. Owned since 1972, it covers my entire life on two wheels and taught me how to be a motorcycle mechanic. I called it "41Years of Bodgery".
It was gratifying to hear many compliments and see people stop to appreciate it among all the great bikes at the show.
Next year, I hope to have the Tomahawk ready for this show. I know I'll be invited back.
