The Motorcycle Museum – Anamosa, Iowa

Hi everyone.

I have so many photos to put on the blog, I’ll just add descriptions where needed but most are self-explanatory. First though – the museum which is at 101 Harley Avenue, Anamosa, Iowa.

The National Motorcycle Museum was founded in 1989 by people who love motorcycling and it thrives today because of their sound plan. Engineers, racers, bike builders, tuners and others as far back as the late 1800′s built the groundwork for what motorcycling has become.
