SAY YES TO MICHIGAN

Based out of the small town of Marshall, in the state of Michigan, the club officially was formed with its first fifteen members in October of 2004. Since the club’s inception, it has lost and gained members, lost and gained friendships, but stayed true to the original idea of its members owning cars and/or motorcycles, or both. We haven't strayed much further from the idea than that.
Simply put, we are a group of guys who, in one form or another, all dig the same stuff: Cars, Trucks, Bikes, Bands, Booze, Babes & Beers. We base our lives around our families and friends first, and the club second. We like to work on our own stuff and ride or drive it when we can; we have great parties and get-togethers, love our fellow members and respect their families, and ultimately just dig having a good time.

Sometimes...

...you're in the right place at the right time and you are front and center when something old becomes new again. I went to the first attempt to hold a vintage drag bike race in Smithfield, Ohio. Wayne Skinner and his family put this thing together... along the way they managed to get M&H Racemaster Tires to cast 60 or so of their old 4"x 18" drag slicks from the late 60's-early 70's. Incredibly they still had their molds... Avon, on the other hand, had discarded theirs. These were the first purpose made slicks for motorcycle drag racing. Needless to say this old bike drag racer had the Skinners put his name on one! I'll eventually build a quarter miler around this- British or American powered of course...
