Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum Set to Expand?
We were excited as anyone when we heard rumors that the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum - hands down the most amazing motorcycle museum on the planet - would launch a 100,000 square-foot expansion in 2012. Jeff Ray, executive director of the Barber museum, confirms plans for an expansion, but says it won't happen as soon as suggested by some sources. Writing for The Birmingham (Alabama) News, Stan Diel said that founder George Barber planned to start construction this year for a new building on the inside of the Barber Motorsports Park race track, with the new building connected to the existing museum by an enclosed bridge running over the track. Visitors will be able to stand in the bridge and watch racing below. Ray says engineering and site plans have yet to be conducted, and suggests it will be at least three years before the first shovel of dirt is turned.

Touring on a 1983 BMW R100RS
Who tours on old - read Classic - bikes these days? I may be a salmon swimming against the motorcycling stream, as my wife and I ride a 28-year-old 1983 BMW R100RS. We bought the bike as newlyweds, kept it when the kids were growing up, and have just kept riding it as it is now a member of the family. Admittedly it is fairly well cared for, and has somewhat low miles at around 88,000. We still like it, so we've kept it, maintained it, and ride it! Fact of the matter is, it's only been in the last four years that we have ventured over 300 miles from home. We are making up for lost time!
