2007 marks the introduction of this new event on the upscale concours circuit. Hosted by Jay Leno with the proceeds going to charity, the event raised over 1 million dollars for the Boys and Girls Club in South Florida. The show itself was an invitational and included cars as well as motorcycles and the turnout in both cases was impressive. We were invited to enter three motorcycles, a Ducati 750 "Greenframe", a Ducati 175SS and a 125 Mondial. The 750, a fresh Rich Lambrechts restoration, won the Platinum award and the 175SS (my pride and joy) went home with the gold award for 1960 and older. A great time was had by all and we are already looking forward to next years event.
Even the refreshments were authentic!
No way not to smile when I saw this - I drove one of these for years. This model features lexan windows on a velcro strap to save weight.
That pink building is the Boca Hotel, a local landmark and the event's host
This Vincent Black Prince got extra points for being ridden in. It was the first one I had ever seen not in a museum. It was the platinum winner in the pre-1960 class
This Vincent tail light makes the perfect end to this gallery. Until next year!
