Kool Aid Dispenser!
Here are some pictures of the Germantown Vintage Rally!

There were a LOT of people there, bit showing and showing up!

Needless to say the amount of vintage bikes there was staggering. Especially that so many of them were ridden to the Rally.

There was a super cool bike with outriggers set up for snow and ice. Can anyone name this bike?

How about a military Harley with a Rotax engine? Everything on the bike was thick molded plastic.

How about this very cool Guzzi with a flywheel on the outside?

This bike had an ultra-cool fairing, though I can't remember what brand it is. I'm not real big into vintage bikes, yet!

One of the bikes that started it all for BMW! A 1928!

All together it was a great showing of some awesome machines! If it had been a little less than 92 degrees, it would have been a lot more fun!

A Vincenct Black Prince, I believe. Circa 1950 or thereabouts. Looks like someone did some "upgrading" on the front by adding discs.
 
Like the look

of the military bike and the Guzzi the best. Nice shots. Thanks.

again updated with a GPS.
The look of the bodywork is pretty cool, sort of like the skirts on horses from the days of the Knights in Armor, fitting for the name Black Prince, don't ya think? Still a big following in England.

Not sure on the outrigger bike, but it looks like some kind of eastern European two stroke. Jawa? CZ? DKW?
