The event showcased vintage and custom bikes.

One of the biggest attractions is the “Trippy 10 Art Show” where 10 lucky people are chosen to paint a helmer that is then displayed at the show.

The organizer of the event said the bikers are able to share a lot of unique art.

“A lot of times people think a motorcycle is just something you ride, but a lot of the bikes here are really interesting works of art that people put a lot of heart and soul into,” event organizer Kurt Diesrio said.

Bikers can also meet up with people with a similar passion for riding and swap parts for the motorcycles.

The event wraps up at 7 p.m. on Saturday.
