Anyone going to the AMCA meet in Rhinebeck, NY tomorrow or saturday?  I'll take a bunch of pictures and post them later this weekend.

Well if you see a 56' Texas plate there give me a call. Looking for one if you see one.

Rhinebeck was a lot of fun.  All kinds of different bikes from early american to early japanese and everything in between.  I only saw 2 simplexes beside mine.  One was a 48, pictures below, the other an automatic.

Really nice pic's.  Did yu have the opportunity to talk with the simplex owners? 

Motorbikes & motorcycles have an appeal, as they take up less space than cars, but the cost of the really cool ones are just too much.....

I spoke with the owner of the Automatic.  He said he came across the site last year, but did not join.  I told him to come on over, so we shall see.  He told me he goes to Portland, so maybe we will run into him again.

Looks like it was a great day for the event. Looked like a good turn out nice pics.

There were hundreds of bikes, and probably at least 150 swap meet spots, plus vendors.  There was also a small ratrod show and tractor show going on at the same time.  I like the way the ratrods lok, but there is no way I would ride in one for more than a few miles as they are all really rough,  as in no seat cushions!  The older I get the more I like creature comforts, like heat and ac.
