This
place is just amazing. It is sort of a motorcycle museum. When I say “sort of”,
there are a LOT of bikes and many are unique and historical like this World War
II German Kettenrkrad. The addition of treads allowed the motorcycle / tractor
to help climb mountains, sand dunes, cross mud flats, act as a tug for
airplanes, and carry loads. They say that the museum is the largest display of
vintage bikes in the east coast.
I say “sort
of a motorcycle museum” because it’s not all bikes. The eclectic nature of the
displays are amazing. There is everything here! This started out as just one
man’s collection (well..his wife helped too!). As people visit and see what he
has, they’ve donated whole collections. For instance, a wife donated her
deceased husband’s camera collection.
Collections
are mostly from the 1900’s and include phones, door knobs, scales, radios, military
hats, toy cars, Christmas, musical instruments, mouse traps, and Elvis.
Special
items include a bar from the 1939 NY World's Fair, John Wayne commerative guns,
Nazi items, dentist chairs, a room made of beer cans, and who knows where these
horses and knights came from.
