Piston and Pints — a Boalsburg Biker Event

July 2, 2012 by Scooter in the Sticks 6 Comments

Piston and Pints — a local biker get together — will have it’s first get together Tuesday evening, July 3, from 5 to 8pm in Boalsburg, Pennsylvania (location details below). 


I use the term biker loosely to encompass anyone on a motorized, two-wheeled conveyance — Harley, Triumph, Vespa, moped, etc.  Not sure what to expect but I’m anxious to find out what a non-commercial biker event is like.  And it will be a recurring event every first and third Tuesday of the month.  So if you miss tomorrow there will be other chances.

If you’re in or around State College, Pennsylvania maybe you’ll want to take a ride.  This Google Map will show directions or plug the address below into your GPS:

203 East Main Street
Boalsburg, PA 16827

Ken’s Moto Shack and Lounge is behind that address — the corner of Academy Street and Rockeys Alley.

    Hey Steve, Thanks! Yeah, this is open to all two wheeled enthusiasts. Just a time to hang-out, wrench, ride, spin tales, and enjoy the life. My Moto Shack & Lounge is BEHIND the address and Google Map location you so kindly posted. It is at the corner of Academy Street and Rockeys Alley. Here’s the precise location: https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=211964042345444798703.0004c2e731e2046bc0904&msa=0
    Hope to see some of you! Ken

      Jason: Welcome to the Vespa world! Riding in Paris sounds exciting. I’ll have to check out your blog more closely — the iPhone doesn’t do it justice.

      I posted some pictures from last night’s event – nice get together for the first time. Excited to see how word of mouth affects turnout. Pretty eclectic bunch showed up.
