By: Cycle Canada Published on 1 April 2014

There’s only so much racing excitement a person can take, so if you happen to be at the MotoGP round in Austin, Texas, this month and need to calm down a little, you can check out the custom motorcycles and leatherwear display at Revival Cycles, a custom motorcycle shop in Austin.

The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show will be presented by Moto Guzzi and will include more than 100 custom-made and hand-built motorcycles of all styles, according to a Circuit of the Americas (COTA) press release. COTA is the race track where the MotoGP event will be staged.

Bikes from the likes of Roland Sands, Deux Ex Machina, and Shinya Kimura will be shown.

Other attractions at the show will be a wall of death stunt show, free tequila, and artisanal hotdogs, and an Oil and Ink Vintage Motorcycle Print Exposition. Also, a “Second Skin Jacket Show” sponsored by Rev’it will feature vintage and modern leather jackets and vests.

That’s April 11 and 12 at 1100 East 5th Street in Austin. See the show’s website for more info.
