Default Motorcycle Exhibit @ Reagan Museum

EDIT: Actually it's at the Reagan Library

Going to try and make this one before the exhibit closes:

I checked it out a few weeks ago....pretty nice exhibit of old bikes and bikes from the movies...the webpage you linked to says it has Shwarzneggers Indian, but it is actually his Fatboy from Terminator. It looks like he got some good use out of it because it looks kinda beat. Air Force 1 and the Heliocopter is pretty cool to check out too. I think admission was around $12.

Thanks for the quick review. Looking forward to it.

Jim - Let me know when you're ready to do this. I'd like to take it in as well. It's in Yorba Linda, right?

That 3rd bike in the lineup looks to be a Triumph with a sidehack... don't think I've ever seen one before.

Bob,
The Reagan Library is in Simi Valley. I think the Nixon Library is in Yorba Linda

Hey Primo,

I just did it with the Society Of Riders (SOR) group. I got hooked into them when a whole bunch came and took the course from me. A real nice bunch or riders with ALL types of bikes. We went last Saturday on 9-11 and had a real nice visit.

Because of the size of the group we managed to score a group rate of $9.00 a head down from the regular $15.00, and we got docents to lead the tour. It was really nice. Maybe if you guys can get enough riders together you can get the same deal. Meet up somewhere for breakfast, then ride out.

Mark
