I hope some of you find this interesting... Especially for the Classic Bike lovers..!! The two races below are put on by AHRMA, and the venues are within a one day drive of each other... just in case anyone wishes to attend these awesome races...

But there was a recent announcement that Kevin Schwantz will be competing on a Manx in 500 Premier at Barber this year (October 8-9), and a 40' container full of Premier bikes (Manxes, G50s, etc) are coming over from New Zealand with Manx guru Ken McIntosh in charge of the lot. Maria Costello is returning this year as well to put the flutter in our hearts while she kicks butts. Schwantz is only doing Barber, but Maria and the New Zealanders are doing both Barber and Daytona (October 15-16), and are really looking forward to this back-to-back event.

Hopefully this will get some premier bikes out of the woodwork, but most importantly, it's going to be a couple of weekends like we've not seen in a long, long time, and all riders in all classes should get ready to suit up.

Cheers..!!
