Biloxi 2015

The weather was with us.  The day started out with a cold north wind but it warmed up quickly and soon the jackets were shed and we had warm sunshine. This was a new venue for us and thanks to curator Kevin O'Brien and his museum staff the registration table and chairs were waiting for us as well as a PA system.  We were invited to display the bikes on the brick piazza that connects the museum buildings. The live oaks kept us in shade so no sunburns were reported. The Frank Gehry-designed museum made a great backdrop for these beautiful bikes (the Guggenheim Museum has nothing on us). We did not know what to expect with this new venue on the western edge of our membership area but soon bikes began to trickle in and before we knew it we had 93 entrants which is a new record for a fall show. As expected we saw many new faces.  We had 12 classes and all were well represented except the small American class. Click on the winners listed below to see their beautiful bikes. We have tried to get a picture of all of the bikes entered in the show and you can page through them in the gallery.
