Until recently I wasn't aware of a a vintage motorcycle museum here in Denver. It's a private collection of around 200 bikes ranging from 1933 - 2008, and it's all hidden away in a basement. You'd never think twice to walk by and not give the building another look. For those of you that want to visit go to www.vintagemotos.com. I definitely encourage those of you that are local to have a look. The owner of the bikes is a character that couldn't be more willing to spend time chatting with you.
While I know virtually nothing about bikes of such a vintage...as a motorcycle enthusiast it is of course very interesting. From a technology standpoint its hard to believe both how far advanced some of the designs were, and just how impressive the tech we have in today's bikes.
I've uploaded about half the pics I took to my flickr gallery.
