Registration is free for bikes and you could win a trophy sponsored by Tom Sawyer Bicycle Shop.

The show takes place at the South end of Sedgwick County Park. The entrance off of Windmill Road.

I'll bring tent, cooler and Coasters sign.

Any of you coming?

I plan on being there.
If it’s too shallow then dig it more deep
If it’s too narrow then dig it more wide
If you see a point of light
Shake hands with the other side

You probably don't want to get me started on VWs....

I've had the '67 since '78 and the Notch since '80. This pic was in my parents driveway in about 1982. Still have both of them though neither as run since the mid 80s.

Several of my fellow VW club members are doing bikes along with VWs.
We've been friends for over 30 years.
A few lurk on this forum.. we'll see if they speak up!

Here is the bike I won in the raffle, I bought $20 in tickets, the best $20 ive spent on a bike. It was built and donated to the VW car show by Wichita bike shop Porkchopped Bikes. It was built with German influence, using the Wolfsburg emblems, a Porsche hubcap, and Iron crosses, and is called the Porkzburg Edition. Very nice bike, even has a SA 2 peed kickback. Big THANK YOU to Kevin at Porkchopped Bikes.
