I had a blast at Dixon, and am trying to make Hebron for the second time in 20 years. I remember it as a friendly meet. I'll be helping with the judging, and seeing what a great job John Cullere did in restoring my first-1930 VL. This has the only known set of crankcases to survive the recall of the first 2000 bikes, so VL fans can marvel at the small flywheels, two piece valve covers, and other one-year parts.

John is a one of the best on the VL model and one heck of a nice guy too. I went on a ride with him and had a very hard time keeping up with him on my panhead, if I even could. His bikes run GOOD.

DanM along with the help of some others has brought this meet back to what it once was and then some. Plenty of room and feel free to come and go without any security escorts. Nice clean modern bathrooms and plenty of parking for spectators. Just please obey the local traffic laws and posted speed limits for your own saftey as this is in a somewhat rural residential area and on a very busy state highway. Still have some misc 36-39 Knuckle stuff i'll bring if someone tells me what they are looking for. Also still have the green/white 43G I had on ebay a few times and i'm open to offers. THANKS DAN, 46EL
