The One Motorcycle Show 2013
It seems like Portland’s weather was on it’s best behavior for the weekend of the One Motorcycle Show (Feb 8/9/10)- giving everyone (even fair weather riders) a chance to pull their bikes off the tenders, give ‘em a wash and ride them in to the show.
Four years in a row now the One Show has attracted a variety of attendees. As it’s progressed the reach has stretched beyond motorcyclists to include designers, artists, and those who appreciate looking at pretty things. Which is basically everyone, right? Thor Drake has developed an inviting and evolving culture within Portland which can not only be seen in the One Show but also See See Coffee & Motorcycles, one of the main moto hubs in Portland.
The second year of the 1 motorcycle show was inside a somewhat gutted two-level industrial warehouse. While Pabst flew out of the coolers and burn outs were a-plenty… it was dimly lit and fell short of the glory that has been achieved this year and last. An estimated 10+ thousand people attended over a three day period. Shows like this usually gather steam over the course of five or ten years, while the One Motorcycle Show managed it almost immediately.
Prepare for an onslaught of photos. There are even more on facebook. I had my camera on my hip pretty much all day Friday, Saturday, and for most of Sunday even during clean up. This is literally going to be the longest blog post I’ve ever done. So go take a potty break, get a bag of crisps or whathaveyou, because this is going to be a doozie.
A cool shot of me doing my thing yesterday during set up at the One Motorcycle Show, by JP of The Selvedge Yard. If you don’t read his blog… you are missing out.
Panoramas from the One Motorcycle Show at approximately midnight.
This badassery is still going on ALL weekend. It’s free. It’s good. Come on down!
Following the One Motorcycle Show
I’m going to let you in on a bunch of awesome places you can follow updates from real live people at the One Motorcycle Show (the1moto.com)! Sure, you might not be able to make it… but that doesn’t mean you can’t join in some of the fun.
Two Year Anniversary Party
It was SO COLD last night (25°F) and yet the Rockers NW crew I know and love so well still managed to get their awesome vintage bikes over to Tonic Lounge for the party. (Youtube video of them rolling in here.)
Today is the two year anniversary of the MotoLady website.
Thank you all for making it such a cool community, and helping make all the parties and give-aways possible. You rock!
Don’t forget about the celebration tonight in PDX at the Tonic Lounge… 8p.
The MotoLady Two Year Anniversary Parté is tonight at Tonic Lounge! I’ll be there at 8p.
Hope to see y’all! (FB event)

End of the World Ride & Last Party on Earth
Let me tell you what… planning a party all by yourself is absolutely crazy. But when better to lose your mind than right before the supposed end of the world? Thanks for that, Mayans.
More photos and fun stuff behind the cut below.
Cody Kahler was kind enough to GoPro the End of the World ride from atop his helmet!
Riders left See See Motorcycles & Coffee at approximately 8:40p. Wheelies were pulled. Look at that shiny wet ground! ‘Bout 30 bikes total.
Bikes, bubble visors, mini moto, mini bonfire, beer, art, give aways… highlights of last night.
More, more, more photos later. Again, thank you to everyone who attended or helped make this End of the World Ride & Last Party on Earth come to fruition!
HEY Y’ALL, WE SURVIVED THE APOCALYPSE!
A very quick update on last night’s party before I go head down and help clean up, eat some good breakfast, and then clean up the mess that is my house.
I’m guestimating (from others’ opinions and my own) about 200 people, and 30 motorcycles. Well done, Portland. You show that rain who’s boss.
Better photos, full update later.
This beautiful Biltwell 3/4 helmet (completely with tinted fade bubble visor) got a custom paintjob from Jeff Wolf and will be one of the prizes at the apocalypse party tomorrow!
These prizes are going to be so hard to give away!
