Steib model 501 sidecar (about 1950) and BMW R90 / 6 motorcycle

Encinitas has a monthly cruise on the 3rd Thursday of each month June through Sept

Beautiful interior and exterior

love the scallop, and pinstriping on the fender skirt

Definitive wrap around windshield

the Prowler looks at home at the car cruise

I've never seen a Plymouth Plaza before

What does it feel like to be the sidecar guy when cornering in a race
