Vintage motorcycles set to take over Road America

Road America will be two-wheel heaven this weekend, as the iconic circuit plays host to vintage-motorcycle racing.

Put on by the American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association, the races run on Saturday and Sunday. They will feature motorcycles from the 1920s to the early 1970s, Superbikes from the 1970s and 1980s, and more-modern racers from the Sound of Singles, Battle of Twins and Sound of Thunder classes

AHRMA is an enthusiast group that preserves the heritage of racing motorcycles through events at race circuits.

In addition to racing, there are plenty of other activities for bike fans during the weekend. Also, Doug Polen, two-time world superbike champion, will host to free track tours for any spectators who take their own bikes.

Jay Springsteen–who was inducted into the American Motorcyclist Association’s Motorcycle Hall of Fame museum as one of the best flat-track racers of all time–and Buell rider Wes Orloff also will attend the event.

One of the nation’s favorite courses, Road America is located between Milwaukee and Green Bay in Elkhart Lake, Wis., and features four miles of straightaways and multiple turns with rolling terrain.
