HARLEY-DAVIDSON EVENT IN BOGOTA

If you have read my previous posts, you'll notice that for years I've tried to get a connection with Harley riders in Bogota and cover an event for one of our motorcycle magazines. Well, my wish came true. A few weeks ago Harley-Davidson of Bogota organized a big motorcycle event in recognition of H-D's 105th year anniversary and YES our American motorcycle magazine was there to cover it.
If you guys can get hold of the Easyriders magazine December issue. You'll see a two-page full color spread coverage where hundreds of motorcycles participated in the event and even Harley riders from Venezuela and Peru showed up.

excellent - often used to see the riders around Bogota; they would gather at the HD shop front in Zona Rosa.

Chingon: No, I don't know of any Harley riders in Medellin but if anybody has information about events there I'd like to know.
webmanco: in "La Feria del Automovil'' they usually have new cars and if that's the case I doubt if they'd combine it with motorcycles unless there's a section for classic cars.

I will post some info about the events if I find out about any public ones, but most of them are members only, tough to get in.

The big car audio show is at November 22nd at Corferias.
