Naturally, this event is going to be the largest one, yet! J&P is already known for their open house event.

Saturday’s Bike Show will feature all makes and models and is being sponsored by American Iron and RoadBike. The Bike Show Sunday is an Antique/Vintage Retro Bobber Show and is sponsored by IronWorks.
The J&P Cycles® Open House started out as a small Customer Appreciation Day held by owners John and Jill Parham to thank their customs for their business throughout the year. Now, as the world’s largest aftermarket retailer of parts and accessories for Harley-Davidson®, V-Twin Metric Cruiser and Sport Bikes, this event has become the largest one-day event in the MidWest.
Spectators at the 30th anniversary event can also see the Teresi Dyno Drag, ILL Conduct Motorcycle Stunt Show, the Motorcycle Monster and the Daytona Harley-Davidson® Drill Team. A silent auction will be held to benefit the National Motorcycle Museum and some very special activities are planned for children, so bring the whole family.

Registration will begin at 10 am from Kirchhoff Distributing, 5035 Chavenelle, with all groups departing by noon. Everyone is encouraged to collect pledges in advance of the ride.
