Picture Intermission – Venice Vintage Motorcycle Rally 2015

In Intermissions by Abhi1 Comment

The Venice Vintage Motorcycle Rally happened a couple of months ago, and I never got some photos together for those of you that weren’t able to come check it out in person! Here’s my attempt to rectify that.

Here’s a few of my personal favorites from the day – but you can click here for the full album if you wish.

Before the rally/show starts, there’s a morning ride that left from Abbot Kinney.

This quirky chopper…

…was full of interesting little details, like this taillight:

this tank:

and this play on words:

Ha.

Plenty of interesting customs showed up:

They raffled off a custom Triumph called the Black Knight:

My little Honda was one of the smallest bikes there:

This highway patrolman was one of the many policemen helping with escorts and ensuring everyone was safe – here he’s giving a safety briefing.

After leaving Venice, we all rode up PCH to Pepperdine University and had a quick stop/group photo.

Then we got back to the show, where there were plenty of sweet bikes even in the parking lot:

Annoyingly, only one bike was entered into the “Mini” class for judging. I could have entered my Honda S90 and won 2nd by default!

Indian showed up with some great customs:

Heroes Motorcycles showed up with some cool bikes, including the custom BSA:

Juicer electric motorcycle:

Venice Choppers had a couple of oddballs, like these:

and also this fantastic Greeves – take a moment to enjoy that front fork:

Beach Moto showed up with some gear and a custom Ducati they just built:

Laverda front fairing:

Beautiful Velo engine:

Custom BMW:

Trophy Time!

Unfortunately, I couldn’t stick around for the whole thing…because Nathan and I took off to go buy bikes for the Beater Olympics! For the full gallery, click here.
