3S Artspce: Welcome East Moto Show

Description

Welcome East is a free, community-based event that will provide an opportunity for motorcyclists in New England to showcase their bikes to an audience of like-minded motorists, compete for awards and prizes from local shops, and partake in general motorcycle camaraderie.

This is the event's third year, following the success of last year's show which was hosted at Legends Billiards Portsmouth.  Over 100 motorcycles and their riders filled the pool hall with their decked out wheels and a lot of friendly chutzpa to entertain hundreds of spectators.

Partners Port City Mopeds, Papa Wolf Supply Co., and Iron and Air are pleased to bring the show to Portsmouth's prominent new arts and performance venue - 3S Artspace at 319 Vaughan Street.  This year's venue will afford the event more space for more motorcycles than ever, food and drink services catered by Block Six, motorcycle art from local artists on display in the art gallery, and live music performances from local acts Harsh Armadillo and One Man Banned.

Motorcyclists of all varieties are encouraged to submit applications for the entry for their motorbikes. The event coordinators are seeking all sorts of entries, including mopeds, scooters, trikes, motorcycles and other unworldly creations. Awards will be given for Best in Show, Best Custom, Best Moped, Best Rat Bike and more.  Prizes will be donated by Iron and Air, Janus Motorcycles, Papa Wolf, Port City Mopeds and others.  This year's sponsors include National Powersports, Pabst Blue Ribbon, Liberated Custom Screen Printing, Deadbeat Customs, Biltwell, and Fortland Productions.
