Indian Motorcycles Museum Opens

on the 15th March. I know what I'll be doing that day as it's only a few miles from me.

I'm interested to see the Camelback as my Grandfather had one, I remember playing on it in the woodshed when I was a kid.

It's a 24 hour flight for me so I think I'll have to give it a miss

so your not going on the " Ride to the opening"
Got the flyer on my desk
It should be more interesting than the New Indian Shop in the Valley at least

Was going in that direction this AM so stopped to get a pic or 2 before the official opening. A few guys were painting and one (perhaps Eric) stopped to pass me a flyer through the fence.

Below scans are of the flyer. A few pix to follow after a morning

Pix .......

A panorama from 3 separate shots. As I was leaving the owner pulled up in a nice Merc, had a quick chat, then goodbye until next week.

I remember using the Golden Fleece Service Stations, way back when, but don't remember which major took them over or why they ceased to exist. I'll put it down to Craft.

I'm looking forward to see what's behind that door.

This is the guy that stopped painting, came to the fence for a chat then went and got a few flyers for me.

I see they spelled Motocycle correctly at least once.

Well it was a good turn out for the opening today, pix follow in no special order, there were a lot of nice bikes in the streets as well as what where inside the fence. I'll go back again next weekend as they still have more to do and it wont be so packed and easier for better pix. That and I need to get a signed print and Tee shirt for my younger brother that's into Indians, he even named his 1st son Callaghan.
