Nice painting I saw in the lobby of the new DC Convention Center.
1st Ducati that caught my eye.
2nd Ducati that caught my eye. Dig that high tail.
3rd Ducati I dug. LOL.
I really liked this one too. Ducati really had a wide selection.
I really liked the color scheme of this BMW K 1800 bike.
BMW bike similar to the one Ewan MacGregor drove in Long Way Round.
Front view of BMW bike. Check the cool and unique headlights.
I thought this one was really cool too. The Aprilia.

Nice paintjob! I like the detail.

Reminded me of the chopper The Teutals did for Discovery. Different color scheme though.

Went last year! Had a great time. Met a lot of cool folks from all walks of life and we all shared one thing - A Love For Choppers and Bikes. Took some great pictures. The Choppers and motorcycles there I saw were incredible including the classic bikes and even saw the bike called The Indian. Sat on and got a feel on every one I liked! Asked a lot of questions and got a lot of answers. Looking forward to checking out this one too.
