Our Annual Bike Show / Street Party – Sunday, October 9, 2011[/B]
Join us for Cafe Desmo, our annual Italian motorcycle bike show, which will be held this October 9 right outside Pro Italia. This year’s Cafe Desmo will feature a bike show with custom trophies, displays from cool moto-vendors, tasty gourmet food trucks, free chances to win great prizes and more! Last year well over 1,000 people showed up. This year we expect even more! Every year Cafe Desmo brings together loads of awesome bikes – all the Italian brands and models that you can imagine along with custom rides, high-zoot performance rides, frankenbike projects, 2-strokes, trailies, loads of truly vintage models, ’80′s new collectibles, rarities, always a few fancy-ass sports cars, barely runners and show winners. Enter in the show and comes spend the day with us!

Register for the Bike Show
This year we are expanding from our all-Italian format and are welcoming non-Italian makes to participate by hosting a American Superbike/Buell class, Italian and Japanese Vintage classes (for pre-’87 bikes made before PI opened). Trophies for Best in Show and First, Second and Third place in each class. We’ll have judges from the bike world (currently we’re talking to Yoshi from the Garage Company, Miguel Galluzzi, Steve Nash, Eric Buell, Brian Catterson, Tony Marcus and a few others).

Updated 09.10.2011: Guy Webster, owner of one of the finest motorcycle collections anywhere has been confirmed as a judge!
