Well the show was a little smaller than normal. I was disappointed that there was no representation from Yamaha, KTM, Triumph, or Ducati. I'm not sure if the Superbowl causing the date change from February to December hurt the show or not but it was definitely smaller than I remember it.

The stunt show with one ramp provided some pretty impressive aerial acrobatics. I don't know how anyone learns to be that talented without killing or crippling themselves.

I was able to pick up some expendables I needed from NoMar tire changers, spoke with the MN Motorcycle Safety Center about Advanced rider course and Expert Rider courses, picked up a pair of race gloves for better protection while attending Zalusky Advanced riding school and track days, and I got out of the house for the day.

Over all it was an Ok show but I was really hoping to lust over a newer Ducati to replace my older Superbike and Hypermotard, and ogle a KTM 500 EXC to replace my XR650L and CRF230.
