Wall of Death
The American Motor Drome Company’s Wall of Death is a vintage, live-action thrill show featuring a silo-shaped wooden cylinder 30 feet in diameter. Inside the drome, motorcycle daredevils travel along the vertical wall performing track, fancy and acrobatic riding. The show features antique Indian and Harley-Davidson motorcycles along with hand built 4-wheeled racing machines. Fans can see the show in the Fan Zone at the top of the 14 foot board wall, where you’ll be able to smell the rubber burn and feel the wind as the motorcycles race just inches from you! If you are riding the complimentary tram, make sure to get off at Tram Stop 2 to watch the Wall of Death show in the Fan Zone.
Demo Rides
Come out to the Twin Buildings located adjacent to Lot D to take a ride on one of the demo bikes from manufacturers including BMW Motorrad, Zero Motorcycles, KTM and Yamaha. If you are riding the complimentary tram, make sure to get off at Tram Stop 4 and walk down the hill at the entrance of Lot D to get to the Demo Rides. Registration for Demo Rides will begin at 8am each day, Friday-Sunday.
Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club
Celebrating vintage motorcycles of all types, the VJMC gathering takes place in Lot D this year! If you are riding the complimentary tram, make sure to get off at Tram Stop 3 so you can enjoy motorcycle shows, items for sale, contests, awards, seminars, and much more!
