Gophers and Cheese

As promised, here are more photos from the 33rd annual Donnie Smith Bike Show , which was this past weekend at the RiverCentre in St. Paul, MN.

I went to the Donnie Smith Bike Show on Saturday March 26th.  I've attended most years since 2008.  This year dropped the car show portion but still had the usual selection of great custom bikes and a large swap meet area.  As always, I tend to gravitate towards choppers and vintage stuff (and there's always a lot to see) but if you're into big wheel / high dollar baggers, this is certainly the show to attend but don't expect a lot of photos from me.  Anyway, if you missed the show or want to relive some of it, I'll spread photos out over 2 blogposts.  Here we go!

The blog is 12 years old today!  While I haven't been posting much content here, I did just update the 2022 Events Calendar .  I hope to hit quite a few motorcycle and van events this year.  My current focus is getting my new-to-me 1978 Dodge Tradesman ready to roll.  I bought it in the fall and it's been a fun winter project so far with lots more to do.  It's about 100X better than the first van I owned .  If you wanna see pics, follow along on Instagram .
