Oregon C/V Bike Swap Meet
Plenty of Oregon people on this forum so if you’re close-ish there will be a C/V swap meet at the Antique Powerland Museum north of Salem on September 18th, 7:00-4:00. Mark you calendars!

It was in May and the weather was stellar so...
Prices were up there for most things.

The Cycle Oregon Week ends the day before. So for some of us, possible but will we be ready for more travel and more bikes? (Granted it might be nice to look at a bike we weren't in a 7 day marriage with.)

They are pretty good folks though but it seems like more of a friends and family wink, wink, nod, nod thing. I did get some big props on the 58 Paramount from the 3 speed crowd that must have made it their lunch stop that day.
No way we're going to win anything with our version of C+V and they did have some fantastic Cabe type baloon tire bikes and many of the BMX were serious collectable ones.
I did talk to them about adding a class and/or expanding their horizons on the judging, pretty sure it fell on deaf ears.

We should show up with 100 bikes and see what they say and do.

I like it! I’ll bring my well patinated Legnano with Condorino bars. That could cause a lot of head scratching.

Let's see, you, me, @Andy_K...I think we're still one collection short of 100...
If we showed up en masse we would end up outside in the gravel so we need to bring gravel bikes.
