Growing up my uncles all road bikes and some even built them.
I remember how excited I was to see them kick start their bikes and hear them rumble off into the distance or to ride on the back of them.
Also hearing about how legendary Indian Larry’s bikes were from my uncles made this event all the sweeter for me.
Unlike the metal scene I grew up in motorcycle events never felt like a fashion show or that the way you looked was ever being judged. Instead it feels like a place where anyone can fit in no matter what you look like.
I really enjoy that.
Secondly I had only a couple hours to visit this event due to prior plans so I was only able to shoot in full sunlight which I find to be the most challenging light to take photos in. Shooting photos especially on the fly doesn’t always pan out how you want it too but it was fun to do it anyways.
Hoping for many more Indian Larry Block parties in the future.
