I’m going back down to Barber again this year & I couldn’t be more excited!!  This 3 day festival in Birmingham, AL is everything I love about motorcycles!  Here are my top 10 reasons (in no particular order) to visit the Barber Vintage Festival – feel free to add anything that I may have missed!

• The Barber Vintage Museum – the layout alone is impressive but the bikes they have here are amazing!
• Ace Corner – even more fun things to do at this primo spot at the track.  Check out the preview video HERE
• The swap meet – you can pretty much find anything you want (I mean NEED!) at this swap meet!  My wife is gonna kill me, lol!
• “Picker of the Year” award – this is awarded to the swap meet vendor with the most unique piece or part for sale
• The Racing:  AHRMA vintage road racing & Vintage trials competitions and cross-country racing through the woods
• Cool Attractions like the Wall of Death & the Globe of Death
• The motorcycle shows – the best of the best comes out to show off what they’ve created.
• Educational Seminars – I did one last year on classic electrics.  You can always learn new things!
• Networking with fellow enthusiasts – who doesn’t love to talk motorcycles?!  And you can talk to someone who’s 18 or 68 about the same really cool stuff.  The mix of people is incredible & motorcycles are bringing them together
• THE MOTORCYCLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Click HERE to see all the official photos from years past.
