Just got back from the Rhinebeck NY meet this afternoon. Had a great time. Friday's weather was great, we had some rain on Saturday and Sunday but it was not a wash out by any means. The time line was set up Saturday morning. I'm not sure how many bikes were in it this year but it is always impressive. No where else can you see that many rare and expensive bikes sitting out in the rain for hours!
I saw Billy Joel wondering around the meet. He flew in on his helicopter from Long Island (which landed in the far end of the parking area and it sat waiting there until he flew off...no shit...
One of the many highlights of the meet for me (and many others) was Frank Westfall's Henderson Steamliner. I saw this and the Enterprise (Indian Scout) come out of the wood work many years ago. Frank ended up with both bikes. Pat just finished restoring the Henderson. The previous owner had stripped the paint. Pat told me he has over 600 hours into that thing! Of course it was not there just for show. Frank could be seen riding it all weekend...and what an awesome site it was! If you know Frank you know that he does not "baby" anything, no matter how rare or expensive it is! I will post some more Streamliner pictures next time.
