I loved looking at all the old Bikes expecially the old Indians we rode our Harley there it was very interesting I might say.
My husband and I took a day trip just to get away and decided to visit the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum near Columbus, OH. We really enjoyed it! The museum sits on a lovely piece of property, very park like. He loves motorcycles, but I don't know much about them. He was able to share so much of the history with me as we went through the museum and I loved it! We both learned a lot. It's small, but very well done. If you're in the Columbus area and are at all interested in motorcycles, it's worth your time. Afterward we went up to the city for lunch and some shopping. Cabela's is close by at Polaris Parkway so of course we had to stop there!! :)
As a long time A.M.A. member, I'd always seen the articles on some of the vintage bikes at the museum but nothing could compare to seeing it all in person. All the historic motorcycles and memorabilia. Make sure your camera has fresh batteries (mine didn't), as there's lots of stuff you'll want to be able to look at later and it's hard to remember it all. The staff was very friendly and eager to answer questions that may arise
It's a small place, but has lots of neat old and new motorcycles. It also has nice motorcycle parking spaces under cover around the building. Definitely a great place to stop, have a picnic and look at some cool bikes.
While I'm not really a motorcycle aficionado, my husband is, and we spent a pleasant hour at this fun walk down memory lane (for him.)With displays highlighting the pioneers of the sport, from leisure riding to racing and dirt-biking, there's something for everyone if you enjoy riding. There's even a little cafe area where they have "On Any Sunday" playing in a constant loop if you get tired of walking through the exhibits.It's not a big place, and can easily be covered in an hour to 90 minutes. Great fun if you're already a fan, and not really painful at all if you're just along for the ride (so to speak!).
We were surprised to find the AMA motorcycle museum on beautiful tree lined grounds. The building is new but the contents highlight motorcycles and racing of the past. It is a self guided tour that traces the history behind the sport. It is not necessary to be a member of AMA(American Motorcycle Association or the American Medical Association) to enjoy the museum.
This is a neat museum not very far off the highway. I took a lot of pictures of cool motorcycles. I like the old Indians and Harleys they had on display. I liked the variety of other bikes as well. I also thought the part about motorcycle advocacy was a really cool part of the museum. The Evel Knevel X-Ray's were a unique touch to go with his motorcycle.
Always wanted to see this, and every motorcyclist should. Great displays and for a geezer like me, lots of bikes I have ridden and race memories. Highly recommended.
My husband & I went here to spend a day together. We try to do things with our budget in mind. We used an entertainment book coupon & was able to both get in for $10! It was a great day learning about the history & people of motorcycling. I loved all the old bikes on display. The patio/cafe area is gorgeous & allows for a small snack from vending machines. As there were only 2/3 other people in the museum is was some great quality time too. I would recommend this for anybody who wants to explore motorcycling-street, off road etc. Easy on the budget too!
I've driven past Pickerington many times and have seen the sign for the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. My lunch appointment cancelled so I decided to stop in on a Wednesday afternoon. Very cool stop for $10 entry ($9 with AAA Card) - you can spend as much or as little time as possible here. Saw bikes from 1904 all the way up to current bikes. Very cool for anybody who's into street bikes or dirt bikes - plenty of neat history & credit to the pioneers who've made motorcycling such a great past time over the years.
