Results of the 4rd Annual Dauphin Island Spring Festival Show April 9, 2000
We had fabulous weather and 79 bikes entered in 12 classes. All in all we cleared $652 for the Duaphin Island school! As soon as I get a date for next year's show I will post it here. Thanks go out to Carlos Forte for organizing a superb show this year. Carlos was so busy with the show, however, that he almost forgot to take pictures.
