I heard a commercial on the radio and was going to look it up. Thanks for doing the looking up for me! I'm going to see if I can make it one of those days.

I am possibly leaning towards Saturday.. Thats when a group of riders I know is going.. And they live in my area so we can take the metro... It would be my first time

Looks like I'm going to being skiing on Thursday-Friday. I wouldnt get back until late Friday/early Saturday so I'm leaning towards Sunday.

I've never been either, but I have been to the DC auto show a couple times which is at the Convention Center. I would definitely be taking the metro from Vienna.. parking in DC is not fun at all!

Meant to say it a while ago... Thank you! You saved me $6

No problem! Glad you were able to make it! what day did you end up going? Were you satisfied with their 'selection'?

NJD022588 · February 5th, 2009, 04:25 PM

I ended up going on Sunday. I enjoyed sitting on all the bikes that I wanted to, but I was hoping to see a little more custom/modified bikes. It all seemed pretty small to me, especially after going to the Washington Auto Show a couple times.

It seemed really small to me. But then again after San Mateo CA, Timonium seemed small and this one seemed smaller than that.

Timonium is this week but I am kinda leaning towards not going.

NJD022588 · February 5th, 2009, 08:39 PM

I've never heard of Timonium. What is it?

BlueTyke · February 5th, 2009, 08:47 PM

thats where the MD State fair grounds are... It's up near Cockysville..

I don't think it is IMS

Linky!
