Everyone its time for the Motorcycle show again in Mateo this weekend and in my neck of the woods Long Beach, CA on the 14-16th of November and Seattle at the end of November. I have confirmed with the girl arranging the demo rides that the list below will be present (In CA and AZ only, they dont demo ride in other states). As for inside of the show just about every bike made is there. All the makes were there from Ducati to Harley with about every model in one place you can sit on and check out. They also have several vendors but i was unimpressed with the gear vendors etc. last year. Seemed mostly about the bikes. They also have some safety seminars and gear checks and other items. You can check it out at the link below. If you are in the market for a new bike i highly recommend it.

Trying to get out there on Saturday. I'm in SoCal so no reason to not be there but something always seems to come up :/ Will make an attempt though.

I just looked at the web site and it said motorcycle parking is free, but limited at Long Beach. Does anyone know if it usually fills up quickly? I might have to take the truck.

I've never had a problem finding parking in long beach. the lot for free parking is behind the convention center

i took my car last year, it was cold in the morning, and had no problem parking. i got there around 9. I dont think its a big issue, other than it was a couple bucks charge vs. free for the cycles.

Only Honda had sportbikes for demo rides this year. I was there a little after 9 on Saturday and all the time slots were already taken (I was told that some guys were there in line at 6am to sign up).
So, I demo on a Harley and a Can Am

That is so lame im glad i did not go.
i did the Harley VROD last year. Its cool the way they just let you take off no group. How about the Can Am? Did you like it? They are different but a blast to ride, no worrying about crashing increases how fast you will go and the fun for me.
