Thanks again for all the great pictures, wish I was there. I hope New Polaris Indian comes out with four cylinder engine, now that would be very distinct!

Great pics! I hope I can get out there someday.
When is the festival held?
Every year in early October (typically the week before Biketoberfest). I think next year will be the 10th aniversary. The vintage rally is really cool but there is getting to be a crowd. The museam is worth going to anytime. https://barbermotorsports.com/park/
Mike, this would make a great place for an F6B gathering for next year.
Think about that...and "possibly" organizing it.
If you do...I "will" be there. You have my word on that !
Great idea, if I can add to it ....
Labor Day Weekend is when many can get 3-4 days off from work to attend a Rally. Just a suggestion...... meeting at Barbers on Thursday around 11-12noon , departing from Barbers around 3-4 pm and arriving in Franklin around 8-9 pm ??? Enjoy the Smokey mountains Friday, Saturday and Sunday or ....... departing Franklin on Sunday around 8 am for Barbers Museum, arriving around 1-2 enjoy the museum and then a nice evening at a nice restaurant, departing monday morning for home ..... just a suggestion.
I have heard that this is a "MUST SEE" museum.
I am all for having the rally HQ in Franklin on/around Labor Day again. Barber could be added as a stop before or after or even a day ride during the Rally. Could be kind of a "riding rally". I was just thinking anyone coming near Barber Motorsports or even within a few hundred miles of it should visit. The first day of/before the rally would be my choice. It is an easy ride from TX, GA, NC, FL,OH, WA and the lower mid-west but I am not the guy to plan it. If you remember, the 1st Rally was in my back yard and I was only able to spend 2 hours there! The only reason I came was to see if some of you thugs actually existed. I have an interesting job but need to be really flexible and balance riding with family, as most folks have to. It is all I can do to break away for Sturgis every year and I sometimes have to fly out to work for a few days during that. This is why I rode 400 miles to Barber spent 4 hours there and rode 400 miles back the same day. I am an instant opportunity rider. Ya'll plan it and I will try to come for a little while.
