Portland’s upcoming motorcycle event will feature a fleet of rare and unique motorcycles plus some wild flat track racing, Feb. 9-11.

The ninth annual One Moto Show is blazing into Portland, Oregon, February 9-11 and will feature some truly unusual motorcycles. In fact, the One Moto Show has always embraced the weird and unexpected in motorcycles, and we think that makes it truly stand out as an event worth checking out.

Held in a massive warehouse, the One Moto Show showcases crazy builds, brilliant concepts, and very badass bikes. The show would not be complete without and the people who have the passion to ride and create these great bikes. The show will feature 180 custom, classic, concept, and rare motorcycles from all over the world. According to the organizers “it’s a cultural gathering for all types of folks; young, old, mild, and wild. We have been hard at work the last 9 years, each year starting from a blank canvas. Each year setting our expectations twice as high, and each year surpassing the last.”

In addition to admiring these bikes on display, you can take in some bikes in motion The One Pro Race. Held in the Salem Indoor Speedway, the fastest flat track in the United States. The races feature a 1/8th mile clay oval track with banked corners. Heat races run 4 to 8 at a time, with the main event including up to 16 racers.

This is an event that promises a weekend to celebrate all aspects of motorcycle life and culture, plus some fierce velocity to amp it up.
