Theme and Tech Nights

Theme Nights have been set up as an incentive for Philadelphia Riders and others to show their bikes to one another, as well as a way to 'spice up' Two Wheel Tuesday a little, but we want to keep it simple. There will be some structure, but not too much, as it's meant to be fun! If you have a bike that fits a particular theme, then bring it by on the indicated night, but if you don't own a bike that fits in to a specific category, please ride what you have. The last thing we want is for people to stop attending 2WT, because they feel as if they don't have a bike that fits!

Tech Nights have been organized, so that we may gain more insight on a variety of motorcycle technical topics. Each Tech session will be a mini tutorial conducted by people of expertise in each specific area, with questions and answers afterwards.

The 2012 calendar of events is listed below. You'll notice that the first, third and fourth Tuesday's of the month are either "Theme" or "Tech" Nights, but there will still be a 2WT gathering on the second Tuesday of each month for anyone wishing to just come hangout.

"Tech Night" lectures will begin at 7:00 PM.
