Last night we recognized and celebrated the incredible contributions of our volunteers during our annual Volunteer Appreciation Dinner!
As the heart and soul of the Museum’s mission, whether it’s working large events like @motoamerica, Barber Vintage Fest, or Children’s of Alabama Indy Grand Prix, lending a helping hand during field trips, or caring for the collection, every hour you give means the world to us!
Thank you for continuously showing up, stepping up, and spending your time here at the Museum! Your hard work does not go unnoticed!
Here’s to you—our amazing volunteers! 🥂

Malcolm Smith, the iconic motorcycle racer and star of ‘On Any Sunday’, passed away on November 26 at age 83 due to complications from Parkinson’s disease.
Malcolm’s career included eight ISDT medals, six Baja 1000 wins (on a bike), four Baja 500 victories, and two Mint 400 triumphs. Off the track, his contributions to motorcycling were just as impressive —through Malcolm Smith Motorsports and the MSR brand, he shaped the industry and inspired countless riders.
Ride in peace, Malcolm.

2010 JRL Cycles Lucky
For a brief time the JRL Cycles Lucky 7 was the only radial-engine production motorcycle in the world. The unusual machine is powered by a Rotec 7-cylinder radial aircraft engine with a swept capacity of 2,800cc and a power output of 110 hp and 160 lb ft of torque.
The JRL Cycles Lucky 7 was originally developed with the goal of building 50+ production motorcycles however the cost to developed and build them resulted in an MSRP of over $100,000 USD - severely limiting the number of potential buyers. Despite the costs we know that four examples of the JRL Cycles Lucky 7 were built— one prototype and three production bikes.
