Live Report From the 2010 Powersports Dealer Expo
Indianapolis, Indiana
- February 13-15, 2010
by Rick K., Editor, webBikeWorld.com
The 2010 Powersports Dealer Expo is scheduled for
this coming weekend at the Indianapolis Convention
Center in Indianapolis, Indiana. The yearly event
is the largest show in North America where motorcycle
and powersports dealers can see and touch all of the
latest products about to be released for the start of a
new motorcycling season.
Why the show is held in February, long after the
manufacturers have to design, develop and manufacture
their products and after the dealers have placed orders,
is a mystery. And why the show is in Indianapolis,
rather than San Diego, Las Vegas, Miami, Orlando, Phoenix or some other
nice, warm spot is also beyond me.
Nevertheless, this would be the 7th year of live
reporting from webBikeWorld.com and all of the logistics
are in place to make the trip.
UPDATE: Sorry everyone, I couldn't make the
show. The Mid-Atlantic region has been
pounded with back-to-back snowstorms over the last 5
days with a record snowfall of somewhere north of 30", which has left me with
chest-deep snow all around the house. The official
webBikeWorld pickup truck is buried under about a 6 foot
drift. This is the most snow at one time I have
ever seen -- and I lived in the snow belt of northern
New York for many years
Not to worry -- to be honest, word is the show is
much smaller this year than last year, which wasn't a
good year either. We'll still have plenty of
reviews coming your way and I plan on attending the
EICMA show in Milan in November to make up for it!
