Bikers rumble into Farm Show grounds
The second annual Bikes & BBQ at the Butler Farm Show grounds during the weekend offered something for every motorcycle enthusiast, many of whom rode some distance to attend.
In addition to several barbecue booths — each claiming to have the best brisket in Butler — several vendors set up at the event.
New Castle Harley-Davidson not only sold clothing and biker accessories but had on hand a stationary bike prospective riders could try out.
It also offered test drives in which attendees with a motorcycle license could ride one of several models on display.
Jack Cohen, president of the Butler County Tourism & Convention Bureau and event coordinator, said the New Castle Harley tractor-trailer, which was parked near its large booth, was headed to Sturgis, S.D., for the biggest motorcycle rally in the U.S. as soon as Bikes & BBQ ended Sunday night.
