MAY 20-21 at the BENTON County Fairgrounds, CORVALLIS OREGON
Our premier event, which is open to the public is our annual spring Show & Swap-meet, which takes place in Corvallis, Oregon, at the Benton County Fairgrounds. The show is on Sunday of the weekend before Memorial Day and opens to the public at 10:00 AM. Admission is $5.00 per person with children under 12 free. You can expect to see over 100 examples of really nice vintage bikes on display. The display site is outdoors when the weather permits (we’ve only had to go indoors due to rain 3 times in 43 years) in a large field at the front of the fairgrounds.
Visitors to our show are encouraged to fill out a ‘People’s Choice’ ballot where you can vote for your favorite bike from each of seven categories: British, American, European, Asian, Competition, Cafe and Featured Marque. The club president also names his favorite and awards are given for President’s Choice and each of the four People’s Choice categories.
On the Saturday before our May show and swapmeet, we always have a vintage ride. See the photo gallery for an idea of the kinds of bikes that take part in this. Anyone who wishes to participate in the ride is invited to meet us at the Benton County Fairgrounds west of Corvallis no later than 11:00am. The ride consists of about 60 – 70 miles of some of the Willamette Valley’s best backroads at a safe riding pace. Everyone is welcome.
