Rocky Mountain Motorcycle Museum To Celebrate 20 Years
I’ve noticed a very surprising thing recently, which is that there is almost a total dearth of motorcycle events going on in Colorado in April. Ever since I put this website up more than 6 years ago I have listed upcoming events on my Rides and Rallies page and this is the first time that I have had to search and search and search to find anything at all to list for April.
The Rocky Mountain Motorcycle Museum is celebrating its 20th anniversary.
If you’ve never been to the museum you really do need to get down there. Actually, I need to get down there because I haven’t been back to it since they moved into larger quarters. They used to be in the small building just in front of Pikes Peak Harley-Davidson, but now they have moved inside the dealership and have more space.
The place was great before, so I have to assume it is even better now. Jerry Manka is the director and curator and trust me, Jerry is as much an attraction as the bikes. He’s a character.
And oh, the bikes! They definitely have some nice ones. A lot of Indians and old Harleys plus a bunch more.
Of course, the last part of the complete name is “and Hall of Fame.” I’m betting the Hall of Fame gets a bit more space now than was possible before.
So April 21 would be a good day to go, but if you don’t go then, go some other time. It’s worth it. You won’t be sorry.

Biker Quote for Today
I like my bike because I can overtake 4x4s down farm tracks with a week’s worth of shopping on the back.
