:: ::

We talk about attending theCharlotte EasyRiders Bike Show. Rico was unable to attend, but Rich and Jon were joined by one of the Riders of Loud Pipes - Mike (aka 18two4ever). This is the third year that the Loud Pipes team has attend the show and have to say this is the largest one so far. A few cherry pops happened - first bike show for Mike and first long ride for Jon in a rain storm.

A few observations from the show:

  • Big Wheel baggers are still here, but conversations with a few builders hint that they are ready to be done with big front wheels
  • Custom vintage bikes are growing
  • Supercharged/Turbo bikes are growing

A few pictures of bikes the guys liked.  If you want to see more,become a patreon at the $5 levelto get access to a shared drive with all the images.
