Welcome to our Events Page.

"The 40th Annual Hanford Vintage Motorcycle Show & Swap Meet" was a real scorcher this year.  It took place on Saturday May 17, 2008,  at the Kings Fairground in the quaint, historic town of Hanford.   Due to gas prices and the temperature breaking 109 degrees, the show was a bit light on entries, but what was there, was really primo.  The judges were very pleased with the quality of the show bikes this year.  Thank you to all our entrants for bringing their bikes out for all of us to enjoy!!  Thanks also to our 135 vendors who braved the heat rather than miss this yearly jumble.  Click HERE for 2008 show results and an overview of the event.  We even got photos of Glenn riding the 1923 Harley Davidson 8 Valve Board Track Racer.  When he fired that bike up, everyone went wild.  He ran it up and down the Midway several times and then, much to his wife's chagrin, signaled the guard on the front gate to throw it open and off he went into the wild blue yonder, with no helmet and no brakes!!!!!!!!  Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 33rd Annual El Camino Historic Motorcycle Show & Parts Exchange is scheduled for Saturday, September 20, 2008, at it's traditional location on the upper parking structure at El Camino College in Torrance, CA.  Last year, despite the added challenge of the rain, we had a great  turnout of 232 vendors from as far away as Arizona, Oregon, Denver, Texas and Idaho.    Our gate was definitely down due to the rain, but our vendors seemed happy and quite busy all day long.  Click  HERE  for show results and an overview of the 2007 event.  Click HERE to go to the 2008 information flyer and entry form.
