http://garagebrewed.com/ The Garage Brewed moto show highlights unique bikes and builders. The sixth annual show will be held in Cincinnati on February 8th 2020 inside of a local brewery, Rhinegeist brewery. This free to the public show lets you see what builders from small towns and cities across North America are building or collecting. The curated invitational event showcases custom, rare, antique, collectible and just plain odd bikes that are hidden away in garages and basements. The event is hosted by an all volunteer group, the Cincinnati Cafe Racer club, which is a social club of motorcycle enthusiasts with a broad range of interests and styles (not just cafe racer style). The first year was 2015 wherethey showcased fifty motorcycles out of about 75 nominated bikes. Styles ranging from custom cafe racers, choppers, antique board track bikes, restored Indian motorcycles, rat bikes and collectable restored classics. In 2018 we had over 140 nominations and had also narrowed it down to 57 motorcycles (not an easy task). Each year the number of bikes to choose fromcontinues to grow. The show will surely have many bikes that will surprise and delight. Each with it’s own unique story.

Embrace the two-wheel lifestyle and take a cruise down scenic route 8 in Ludlow, KY. While your out and about, swing by Bircus Brewing Co. right on Rt. 8 (Elm St. in Ludlow). Talk shop with fellow cyclist and motorcyclist and have some of the best brews in town! As the season rolls on, we’ll be booking food trucks more often, but until then, we welcomefood deliveries through Uber Eats, Door Dash or Grub Hub for those interested. Opening at NOON on Tuesdays starting May 1st and staying open until (at least) 8pm… later with a crowd.

It’s summer and time for bike nights again! Starting May 2, Cincy Cafe Racer (CCR), in conjunction with the good folks at Dogberry Brewing will be holding Wednesday night bike nights again. There have been a few changes since last year – soft drinks are now available for those wanting them and we are working on having food available. All bikes welcome, heck we’ll even put up with cages provided you don’t make a habit of it.
