My trip to Barber Vintage Motorsport Museum

[Pilot]

Got a chance to go the the Barber Vintage Motorsport Museum today. Blew me away. The have the largest collection of motorcycles in the world, vintage race cars, a big Lotus race car exhibit, among other things. There is also a race track directly behind the museum and, fortunately for us, they had some guys out of the track thrashing on their motorcycles today. Had a blast and got to see some amazing, rare stuff.

Here are a few teaser pics from the day. Keep in mind, I'm not a photographer and all these were taken with my phone. There is a link to an album with about 90 pics in it below the pics.


Picked out some random pics to give you and idea of how varied the collection is.

Alabama is too far to see something that awesome? I bet you lead a boring life.

Amazing, nothing short.

12hr motorcycle ride there could be fun too.

It's honestly worth the trip. Watching the guys racing on the track behind the museum completed the experience.
