The Advanstar International Motorcycle Show
The muffled sound of a V-twin motorcycle drifted between the endless rows of parked cars that filled the parking lot at Cleveland’s IX Center, home of the Advanstar IMS show. It was the only two-wheeler to be seen outside of the IX Center, where the morning temperature struggled to climb out of the mid-teens.
The interior of the IX Center was a completely different climate, one that is often referred to as “springtime in January.” Each year thousands of enthusiasts flow through the doors to enjoy the bright lights, shiny paint jobs and glittering chrome. The Cleveland show signals to winter-bound riders that the spring riding season will soon be within reach.
This year’s IMS Show featured the Ohio Motorcyclists for Children (OMC) raffle bike and a booth to promote the upcoming ROLL ON COLUMBUS event. A big thanks goes out to the Advanstar staff and management who went out of their way to make it possible for OMC to be present at the Cleveland motorcycle show. (more…)
