I can remember the original Gypsies. They would camp out in the woods in the back of the farm. They were very nice people. They actually travel with family, great cooking in which they share with us, and the entertainment of folks music in the evening. That was in my mind the highlights of Bike Weekend.

It was a lot quieter in the beginning but grew into a big show during the 60's to what it is today. The gypsies no longer participate even though the week is called the Gypsy tour.

Even today, I enjoy the events during the week.
