Fort Conde Show (old bikes at the fort)
We had perfect sunny and warm weather for the show despite being so late in
the season. The format for the show was vintage bikes only. This made us
nervous but 57 bikes showed up for the 12 classes which is a great turnout for
any show. The entrance fee was a mere $3 per bike. Our sponsor A&B
Honda in Mobile covered the cost of the awards which this year
were framed certificates. With some of the proceeds we renewed our web site for two more
years. When all of the smoke cleared we still had $158 left over which we donated to
the Museum of Mobile for its Fort Conde renovation fund. Due to the tight city
budget much of the routine upkeep for the old fort has been put on hold.
The restrooms were no longer working and the upper level is now closed to the
public because the floors have deteriorated. Anybody who would like to
make a donation to the fort would be giving to a worthy cause. The Fort is
a real asset to downtown Mobile. Below
is a list of the winners in each class with a link to a picture of the bike. We
tried to get a picture of most of the bikes. If
you do not see your bike here and have a picture of it send it to Jim Downey jasdowney@gmail.com
and he will load it on this site. All ofour pictures can be seen in the
