JUST ANNOUNCED!
Feb 19, 2007. The thunder is rolling into downtown Buffalo each and every Wednesday this summer with the announcement of a huge weekly motorcycle expo at the Buffalo Smokehouse, 257 Franklin St.
Too big to be called just a “Bike Night”, downtown developer Mark Croce has once again set his sights on reinventing the meaning of a midweek downtown gathering.
Dubbed “Hog Wild Wednesdays”, the Smokehouse has teamed up with the wildly popular motorcycle publication Hard Tales Magazine to create a weekly event that will be exciting for both the casual rider as well as seasoned life long bikers. These nights will be a great way for anyone who appreciates the craftsmanship and artistic beauty of a fine motorcycle to enjoy all the displays in the Smokehouse's expansive outdoor covered patio, stage and indoor/outdoor dining areas. The Kick-Ass Bar-B-Que also comes along for the ride.
It also happens that the cofounder and designer for Hardtales Magazine, Jim Breidenstein, is also the marketing director and graphic designer for Mark’s other ventures. A perfect fit? Yeah, I’d say so!
Besides live music, great food, drink specials, free admission and off-street preferred motorcycle parking -right in the private lot outside the Smokehouse, we are told that some of the regular features of Hog Wild Wednesdays are displays from local and national bike builders, manufacturers, product demos, celebrity appearances, clothing and accessory vendors, contests, tons of prizes and lots of free stuff!
In the tradition of the “over the top” excitement Mark is famous for, there are even rumors of the county's only rooftop bike show, (lookout Skybar!). What's next, a buckin’ motorcycle ride? I guess we’ll have to wait and see. It’s gonna be crazy!
It all rolls into downtown beginning May, 2007.
