Lots of fun activities and a huge bike show. Many vendors and manufacturer reps including the Baker crew. Police races and competition. Fashion show, eats and more. No cost to watch and participate other than the donation for the 30 mile escorted non stop parade ride leaving Vehicle City Harley at 11 am, be there early for line up. $10 for driver, and $10 for passenger for the ride and the wrist band has other discounts involved.
Who else made it to the event this year?
Here's my report from last year's event with photos:
One of the last photos before the collision that wrecked my 1986 Tour Glide 10 days later. Collided with a left hand turning vehicle that pulled in front of me and the wife.

Made it to The Bikes On The Bricks Saturday night. Got there in the evening shortly after the sun finally came out. Riding in the north wind with a 59 degree temp was sure a shock to the system. Friday night's music entertainment was in Flint Twp at Vehicle City Harley with a fair good attendance. Didn't take the 30 mile escorted ride Saturday morning. It was mid 50s, cloudy, windy with a threat of rain ... not my kind of riding weather. Heading downtown again today in just a few minutes. Was glad to see the sun come out and a sunny Sunday (through Thursday). Kick in the *** from the 90s last weekend. Mid 80s will be back mid week.

Reason: updated details
Decided to head back to the Bikes on The Bricks solo today (Sunday) and glad I did. Ran into a few friends and made a few new ones. The highlight for me was when 300 riders from Detroit came up to make an appearance and visit for several hours with their brothers in Flint. Lots of bikes to see and quite a few people packing the streets. Must have been 2,000 to 3,000 bikes downtown.
