on 7/13/2008 I hadn't heard about it, sounds interesting. I have a friend who collects shirts from Harley dealers all over the country, so at least I know what souvenir to get!

on 7/12/2008 Now this museum is here just in time for the 105th anniversary. I am told getting tickets online is the way to go, as they sell out quickly!
