Like a Bull at a Concours

By David Cohen
Running Bull in pride of place at the Laverda Concours.
The Brisbane Laverda Club's annual concours event is the biggest bike show in Queensland. Unofficial estimates online have the crowd at around 5000. I'm no judge, but I'd buy that. There was a large number of people there.
Some of the large crowd on hand.
I rode in at about 8:30 and parked the Bull at the front of the Indian/Victory trade display as directed.
In between laps of the venue shooting stills and video of the fantastic array of bikes on display I talked to people about the bike.
A lot of people. The response was overwhelmingly favourable.
In fact the only person who has been overtly negative about the bike so far is my sister in-law. This fact is not surprising.
The amount of people who were highly complimentary about the project - and Mark Walker's paintwork - was particularly pleasing. The project has plenty of fans already.

The show was a great experience, both from the meet and greet, all brands social occasion of it all, but also for the diverse range of beautiful machinery on display.

Here's some of my shots uploaded at high-res on flickr:
