annual PDX moto hipster event

[Enigma T]

Anyone planning to come to this in the spring: https://www.the1moto.com/ ?

Sure, Parc will lambast it as an overly commercialized trendy garbage marketing event with impractical and unrideable bikes created by self-important douchebags, but still...
It's happening, and we live here, and you might be interested.

Indeed, the One Moto Show has grown to an international event. Microbrews, espresso, whisky bars, bands, and several tattoo parlors. I would show my Hawk, but I really don't want to leave it there for three days. But if you are coming, PM Parcnhawk or Enigma T or me and we will get together.

There's booze and bikes, If it was close to me I'd go.

Sounds alright except for the hipsters...

I'd leave feeling dirty

[lamelylounges]

alls i can say is that i just spend entirely too long trying to find WHERE the stupid show even takes place. dang me, what a broke-butt website. argh.
(if it were near me, it would be fun to meet some fellow hawkers)

Isn't this just a rebadged gentleman's ride or whatever they call that event?

While it's not a Hand Built Show, it is more than a Distinguished Gentleman's Ride. There will certainly be plenty of crossover between the three though I think.

I have been to the Hand Built in Austin while attending the MotoGP. It was pretty cool. Never been to The 1 Moto Show. A group of my friends go because they know plenty of people in Portland. And because booze and bikes as mentioned previously. It usually just looks like a $$$$$$$ weekend to me.

It is an eclectic show. Everything from rat bikes, to unrestored vintage racers, to choppers and bobbers, to a few perfect restorations.

That does sound fun.

Best kind of shows are when the styles all mix. I hate shows where it's only one style/type of bike being shown. There is a reason I love Vintage days at Barber. You see every single bike ever made all in one glorious weekend. Along with racing and buddies and beer and whisky!

i hope one of our members will show us ALOT of photos from the event.

I had my artwork shown there once, a few years back. Unfortunately I couldn't make the trip in person. Whoever goes, give Parc a hug for me.

If anybody is planning on coming up/down/across/through to attend, let's hang out. Hugs not required but appreciated.

There are usually two or more tattoo booths. This one is recommended for beginning hipster riders.
