Revival Cycles, an Austin-based custom motorcycle shop, has teamed up with Moto Guzzi and Circuit of the Americas to provide a FREE custom motorcycle, art and entertainment showcase at 1100 E. 5th St in Austin on April 11th and 12th, to coincide with the 2014 Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas.
The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show is a showcase of builders and craftsmen, combining skill, knowledge and ingenuity to create one-of-a-kind handcrafted machines. These artists add fuel to a revolution in the making, one that encourages people to explore the unrivaled satisfaction and joy of creating something with one’s own hands.
This handmade revolution is not solely confined to the world of custom motorcycle making and The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show believes it’s imperative to support the craftsmen working in all disciplines in today’s mass-produced world.
