2013 International Motorcycle Show - Chicago
« on: January 16, 2013, 06:46:09 AM »
I'll be at Chicago -- it's February in Chicago, and motorcycles . . . .
Bingo.  I like it, a nice midway point reminder that better days are coming..
That's my reason too for going ...

Never been to the show before.  Any tips to share?  What to look for?  Free tickets anywhere?

I'm thinking of going too.

What about those free tickets?

Hold on to your hats/helmets!  :)

It seems that I can save you $2 per ticket with this code. IMSCP

Use the code here, http://www.motorcycleshows.com/

I know, I know, that savings is almost too good to be true.

You're welcome.    ;)

Sitting on a new Concours 14 making vroom, vroom noises at the Progressive Motorcycle show in Chicago earlier today...

Nice bike!

Great mileage when you ride at a trade show...

Had a good first time visit, looked at a lot of gear, lot of leather products available for 'pirates', all major helmet makers were represented, Sena, Chatterbox, and Scala products (liking the FM5 myself), and people watching too.
