It runs from 11 to 4 today in the Canada Room of the Keystone Center or whatever they are calling it these days. I received an email from Chris and there are 17 tables of parts booked. Not only that but in excess of 40 bikes for sale. The Honda, Yamaha, and Suzuki dealers will have displays set up.

Get out there and have some fun, if nothing else stop by and say Hello: I will be the short fat guy with the ponytail. Trashy_biker

It was a little hard to tell being in a new larger building, but I would say that the crowd was the same as most years. There were quite a few parts for sale, lots of bikes for sale , and some dealer displays. Not bad for a first attempt. Talked to a couple of guys from the forum, all in all a pretty good day.

Tom did you get to see the table Bill Chrest had set up??
He had some real old photos from the 40's
a whole book on the 49' Daytona beach bike week
Some pics from 1945 of local bike shop owner(the late) Lawrence Bird receiving and setting up a ww2 surplus bike still in the crate and his following years of ownership of the bike.
Bill had an amazing collection of photos from mid 40's till today taken by local photographers
