AMA's Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum Opens 2009 with Events Celebrating
Classic Motorcycles
PICKERINGTON, OHIO - The AMA's Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum invites
fans of vintage machines to rev up for two notable events. The International
CBX Owner's Association (ICOA) will pay a special visit the Museum
on Saturday, January 24, 2009. Two weeks later, on Saturday, February
7, the Museum will host the Penton Owner's Group (POG) for the 8th
Annual Penton Day. All riders are welcome at both events.
The ICOA event on January 24 begins at 9:30 a.m., with a tour of the
Museum's colorful exhibits, including "MotoStars: Celebrities
+ Motorcycles" and "Awesome-Ness," an installation chronicling
the career of legendary customizer Arlen Ness. The day will continue
with a technical session and presentation by special guest racer Geoff
Smale. Smale is known for a number of racing accomplishments, including
becoming series champion of the British Earlystocks "1300 production" class
in 2000 astride a CBX with unmodified displacement. Smale also one
of twelve racers to lap at over 100 mph in a sidecar outfit, both as
driver as well as passenger, during the Isle of Man TT races. The ICOA's
visit to the Museum will be held in conjunction with the club's winter
tech rally held in Columbus, Ohio, on January 24 and 25. The ICOA invites
all enthusiasts to join them at the Museum on January 24. The event
is free, but regular Museum admission rates apply. Riders can log on
to www.motorcyclemuseum.org for additional information.
Penton enthusiasts are welcome to bring their machines to display
at the Museum on February 7, when the Penton Owner's Group holds the
8th Annual Penton Day. Sign in begins at 9 a.m., with the group's annual
business meeting starting at 10 a.m. The topic of this year's event
will be the 50th anniversary of Motorcycle Hall of Famer John Penton's
record-setting transcontinental run on a BMW, and John will be on hand
to share his memories. Penton's son, Motorcycle Hall of Famer and AMA
Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum board member Jack Penton, will also
be at the Museum to serve as a host of the annual Penton Day events.
Riders interested in joining the festivities can log on to www.motorcyclemuseum.org
for additional information. Membership in the POG is not required and
lunch will be provided.
