Get ready for the 30th Annual Spring Motorcycle Show on April 6-7, featuring events, competitions, and motorcycle culture at the Toronto International Centre.
Riders Plus Insurance is thrilled to sponsor the 30th Annual Spring Motorcycle Show, an event not to be missed for motorcycle enthusiasts. Set for April 6 and 7, 2019, this exciting show will take place at the Toronto International Centre, located at 6900 Airport Road in Toronto, Ontario. With over 50 motorcycle clubs and associations showcasing their bikes, attendees can look forward to a vibrant celebration of motorcycle culture.
Explore Featured Events and Competitions
The show promises a plethora of entertaining features and events, aimed at riders of all ages and interests. Among the standout competitions is the ‘Cash for Classics’ Display Competition. Vintage motorcycle clubs are invited to enter bikes that are over 30 years old, with prizes awarded based on both the quality and presentation of the displays. This event honors the rich history of motorcycling and encourages clubs to showcase their finest examples.
Another highlight is the Classics on the Red Carpet, a rebranded showcase that, in previous years, was known as the “Bikes of the Century.” This year, it will spotlight a century's worth of iconic motorcycles, allowing attendees to immerse themselves in the legacy and evolution of biking.
If you've got an old bike that's been sitting unused in your garage, consider participating in The Barn Find contest. Attendees can bring their long-stashed bikes for a chance to win cash prizes for the best three entries. This is a fun opportunity to breathe new life into your forgotten ride and celebrate its journey.
Creative Expressions and Community Celebrations
In honor of the show's 30th anniversary, the Toronto International Biker Poetry Contest will also take place, inviting poets to share their works on stage during the event. This unique aspect of the show allows for artistic expression and provides a platform for the voices of the biking community.
Additionally, the show will recognize notable contributors to the motorcycle community with the announcement of the 2018 Motorcyclist of the Year. This recognition highlights individuals who have made significant impacts in the world of motorcycling and helps foster a sense of community among attendees.
Custom Contributions and Market Opportunities
The excitement doesn't stop there. Attendees can marvel at this year’s Custom Showbikes, where SIA's best custom builders display their work, enhanced with elaborate effects. Participating builders will compete for a cash prize of $20,000, showcasing the creativity and craftsmanship of motorcycle customization.
If you're looking to sell or buy a bike, the show features a lively Used Bike Market on the main show floor. This presents a perfect opportunity for private sellers and buyers alike, facilitating exchanges between community members.
For those on a hunt for hard-to-find motorcycle parts, the Pickers Market area will be a haven for vendors offering parts from American, British, Japanese, and European motorcycles, along with memorabilia and collectibles. It’s an ideal setting for enthusiasts to find that special piece to complete their motorcycle or collection.
Supporting the Future of Motorcycling
The show also emphasizes the growth of future riders through the 2019 Race Stars of Tomorrow program. This initiative offers support and sponsored booth space for upcoming motocross, road, and flat track racers, providing vital resources to help them secure sponsorships and develop their careers in motorsport.
Moreover, the show will celebrate the 7th Annual Women in Motorcycling, featuring discussions and presentations aimed at promoting the involvement of women in all aspects of motorcycling—from riding to mechanic work and beyond. This highlights the commitment to inclusivity and the continuation of the motorcycle community's growth.
Produced for motorcyclists by motorcyclists, the Spring Motorcycle Show offers a unique opportunity to engage with the community, discover new products, and attend informative workshops. Whether you're looking to buy a motorcycle, network with other riders, or simply enjoy the atmosphere, mark your calendar for this exciting event—and make sure to grab your tickets here.
