Field trip... Pic heavy...

I thought this might be interesting to some.

We went to the giant fleamarket, known as the Brimfield Antiques Show, yesterday. It is held 3 times a year in Brimfield, MA.
My wife and I go every year.

I took pictures of some of the bikes I saw, and thought I'd post them..,

That plane body would make a killer cycle-o-car build.

That looks like a pretty awesome scene; you took some great pics. I don't think I could've left without that truckbike.

The green/gold folder has some pretty cool style to it. Looks like a fun time for sure !!!

Pulled Pork Sammich.. Yum! Looks like a great flea market, it looks like the stretch is lacking a little bit in the rear

Been to Brimfield many times and I always enjoy the food the most as its usually the only thing I can afford! For those that don't know about brimfield it is a nearly week long antique flea market held 3 times a year with over 5000 vendors from all over the country and buyers from all over the world. The pics here do not even begin to show the size of this place...It is massive and takes a good 4-6 hours to really check the whole place out.

NEVER go to it in July...

Go in May, Go in September... Don't go in July...
There really isn't any way to get out of the sun, and you will not enjoy it.

These pics are not even the tip of the iceberg...
It is large...
(Not my pic)


I did not ask the price on the shelby...

I forgot to mention, the people watching is pretty spectacular too.

I could just pull up a chair, eat that pulled pork, and enjoy the show...

Eavesdropping on conversations is a must as well.., there are plenty of characters, stories, tall tales, dickering, wheeling and dealing...
