Howdy all, forum member whereiwannabe and I are producing and launching the inaugural Austin Moto Fest, Saturday April 13, one week before MotoGP hits COTA. Will be a mighty dang fine event for all moto-lovin' folks, and hope a bunch of fellow GSRers can make it to the festivities!

Send me a PM if you're traveling in ?either for AMF or MGP? so we can be sure to meet up.

You're killing me, Frank! The 13th is (was?) the first day of a two-wheeled trip to KS, MO, and AR. I need to sort this one out...maybe I could leave a day later.

Frank and Frank....I will be there one way or another. Winslow has the line on a frontie for me. Now i just need a 110 or 120/90/17 for the pusher. Looks as if the skunk WILL be rode down after all. ( fingers still crossede that is )
 
I may ride down to check it out also.

I wish I knew somebody from dallas that was taking a car down so I could send spare parts for the swap meet.

What does N.O.T. rally mean?

Hey Frank,


Nice job putting the Austin Moto Fest together!!


Couple of years in the making?
 
More like 6 months in the making. He was talking about it in October at Lukenbach ( The Harvest Classic ).
 
Good guesses; 2 years since we've formed LLC, 10 months analysis, 4 months production ramp-up, 2 weeks til festival launch... :eek:

Then, MotoGP races at COTA following week. And, a relaxing beer or two.
 
Is there a designated area to unload/load motorcycles? What's the parking set up like?
 
Good question Ace. I woke up pondering about what to do with my jacket and helmet once on-site.
 
Greg...we will take our gear to the green room...just follow me.

Prking and bike unloading...Large parking area to the west of the buildings and there is curbside along 5th. No problem for loading or unloading your bike Franjk.
 
Sounds good, Chuck. I was considering the length of my truck, the ramps, and the space needed to roll the bike back.

I hope that the new fork boots get here in time. A few days ago, I discovered that one of them cracked all the way around. I guess that's expected of a 40+ year old bike.
 
We WILL make it happen Frank...LMAO. Theres plenty of places just up the street and over on 6th to get you the room youll need.
 
We're developing load-in/load-out plans for show bikes as i type, and will post info to AMF website once confirmed.

Regarding helmets, we're planning on a helmet check room... much like a cloak room, only for skid lids. As for backpacks, jackets, gear, etc... well, travel light ;) Will try to accommodate as much as possible, though.

13 days 'til lift off!
 
looks like my wife and I will probably make it there sometime in the afternoon. Kids first soccer games are over by 11:30am here in houston and then it's a nice little drive over to austin so long as the babysitter comes through.
 
We just acquired this old KZ650 as the project bike to help fund Push Starters. The old girl will be on display at AMF, and after the show the resto will begin with the help of some kind and skilled folks. Then she'll be auctioned off at AMF 2014, and funds will go to help a few underprivileged kids get their MSF instruction and some riding gear. :)
