Motorsport legend and founder of the Barber Motorcycle Museum George Barber, passed away on Monday. If you’ve never been to his museum I strongly suggest you make the pilgrimage. Probably the best museum I’ve been to. Both times I was there Mr. Barber could be seen walking around the museum talking to guests, seemed like a real nice approachable guy. The museum is spectacular and bikes are all absolutely pristine.

Hopefully he has planned for succession for the museum and racetrack

I sure hope so, it would be an absolute shame for that collection to get liquidated. That museum was truly a labor of love. Anyone who has been there will know exactly what I mean. I may be in the area in March and will try to make it there for my fourth time.
