WEST SPRINGFIELD, MA – With rain in the forecast for Saturday, a logical place to escape to is the 11th annual Springfield Motorcycle Show at the Eastern States Exposition. Numerous dealers will be showing off new models and vendors will have gear. There will also be a vintage display by the Antique Motorcycle Club of America, a custom bike build-off, a fashion show, a tattoo competition and music.
