The 6th Edition of the custom motorcycle show held at Rhinegeist didn't disappoint. Garage built specials, money is no object customs, restorations and survivers there was something for everyone. Two things I love about this show, one is I'm still a gearhead at heart and two, lots of cool stuff that is photogenic.
Do you like beer?
Do you like motorcycles?
If you answered yes to those questions I hope you caught the Garage Brewed Motorcycle Show at Rhinegeist last weekend. Custom bikes, survivors and retired and not so retired racing bikes. There was something for everyone.

Nothing can stir up a longing for warm weather like a custom motorcycle show. I haven't ridden a motorcycle in years but I still appreciate the freedom they bring. And nothing is cooler than the Garage Brewed Motorcycle Show at Rhinegeist brewery, now in its 4th year. I'm always amazed what these guys put together, there is something about sipping awesome brews and looking at incredible bikes that can't be matched.
In addition to the custom bikes, Garage Brewed has added an area in Rhinegeist's upstairs event space for original bikes. Old bikes you've probably never seen before, and maybe a not so old one, a bike like the ex-Nick Cage 1999 Ducati MH900e.
Save the date for the third Saturday in January 2019 and check the show out yourself.
There were a couple bikes at Garaged Brewed I really liked and felt deserved a little more attention. HK1 Hard Knock WM built by Jerry McGinty was an amazing work of folk art. He placed #1 in the Garage Custom Category. The longer I looked at it the more details popped out. It was crazy. Ever hear of less is more? This builder went the other way and showed the correct way to break a rule of thumb.
Another amazing custom bike show at Rhinegeist. Tim Burke and the guys did a bang up job again this year, increased hours and more space dedicated to bikes help spread the crowds out a little. But hey, cold beer, hot bikes, no one is in a rush anyhow right. Bike watching, people watching, it doesn't get much better than this.
