The weather god could have been kinder to OB’s big show in November. It was cold and misty. Despite the weather, bikes rolled into OB’s in Deland for the 18th annual old school bike show. Two bands Judi Behave! and the Alex Hayes Band, entertained the crowd all day and into the evening. The judges had a hard time narrowing the winning bikes to the 7 categories. Thunder Roads Florida provided the People’s Choice trophy to Chris Oathout. Best in Show and Best Stock Panhead was awarded to Nanner Starnes. Following this article each bike also is featured in this issue. Other winners were Best Panhead Custom was Robert Wilkinson with his 1997 Panhead. Best Stock Shovelhead was Joe Henley with his 1984 Electra Glide. Best Antique was a 1952 owned by Frank Davis Harry. Best Custom Shovelhead owned by Hiram McCarty with a 2000 Flat-side Shovel. If you have an interest in the history of motorcycling, this yearly show is loaded with the old school bikes and owners that have interesting knowledge and tales to share.
