JustinNck1 Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) I was just curious to see who is going to AMA Vintage Days at Mid-Ohio in a couple weeks. Right now, my plan is to ride up and back Saturday. Edited June 21, 2016 by JustinNck1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whaler Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 I will be there with my boys. Always a good time and most of the bikes I grew up on are now considered vintage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo72 Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Do any vendors besides KTM do demo rides at the event? Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Wife and I will be there all 3 days on our infield scooters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vf1000ride Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 My BMW demo last year was the full loop out of the track and through a bunch of the back roads. I know they were concerned and canceled a bunch of the rides due to all the rain and mud last year. Hopefully it will be dry this year and the rides a little more fun.

Wolfman1 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Well as fast as I was in, now I am out. We already have something planned for that Sat. May still go on Sunday, but I hear there is not much going on and usually dead, so I haven't decided yet. Sorry Tim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue what all goes on throughout the weekend, it's the wife and I's maiden voyage to Vintage Days as well. We want to get there early Friday and sign up for the KTM demo rides, but other than that we just plan to check into the hotel and putt around on the sumos all weekend. We should all meet up somewhere at some point, or maybe about same time daily for those that can only make it out one day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 If I can get out of work on Friday I'll be heading up, but I'm definitely going on Saturday. Sadly I have to fly out to bumfuk Missouri on Sunday for work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck78 Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 (edited) This is one of the few events that I won't miss it for anything every year. Definitely one of the biggest highlights of the summer. Suzuki is sponsoring the event, and also bringing some historical vintage team Suzuki race bikes in order to commemorate the 40th anniversary of super bike racing. Wes Cooley the famous Superbike star from the 1970s who rode for Suzuki / Yoshimura is also the Grand Marshal of the event. Camping out at the event makes it about triple as epic even! The AMA VMD campground scene is probably the most rowdy things ever get at Mid Ohio... I'll be putzing around on a black/gold modded 1977 Suzuki GS 750 with fox piggyback shocks with red reservoirs, or maybe finally getting the rat rod bike hauler 1962 GMC Panel Truck ( delivery /work truck version of the Suburban) on the road last minute tomorrow. My buddy has a beat up looking green 78 GS750 that we are finally getting mechanically restored (& a 'zuk dr350 dual sport). I'll be in the back corner if the 1st campground field hopefully. Hopefully with the old truck. Skinny guy 5'10" scraggly brown hair sideburns, my buddy looks similar in description but shorter hair graying & green gs750. Say hello if ya can manage to spot me. Chuck's the name. Wife's riding the go kart in the wall of death motordrome show so I'll be around there a lot.
