Ditto to mx250- people love classic dirt-

You bet! these kind of things are good community events and often raise money for charities. The more entrants they get the bigger and more successful the show gets.
make sure you give us some pics though. :D

watch what happens, people will ignore the Shelby Mustang or Billet Chopper and head straight for the TT500s, because they used to have one or wanted one when they were younger. ;D

You might get  some new/old bikes/parts/crap given to you.

"Yeah, my father kept his old bike, gathering dust and rusting away, you can have it, call around." Turns out to be Vincent Black Shadow/Rickman Truimph/BSA Bantam ;D ;) ;D.

I picked up a complete V75 Monty when the guy who was powdercoating a shock spring for me asked what it was off.
"Oh a Montesa. I've had one of those in the backshed for 15 years. Never bothered to put it back together after I powdercoated the frame and bought all the bits from O'Briens". "Ya can have it for a coupla hundred bucks. Doubt anyone would want something like that these days......."
I dislocated my shoulder getting my wallet out..... ;D
