Sponsors for the Bike Event include Big Mike’s Bike Detailing, PJV Novelties, Quinn Creations, Freeburn Law, Shangri-La Leather Shop, Strip Club Choppers, Splitting Edge Axe Throwing, and Cloud Castle Cigar and Lounge.
Blue Comet is, according to its website, one of the oldest and continuously-operated American Motorcyclist Association-sanctioned club in the country, located near Skippack Village. The family-oriented group is comprised of motorcycle owners of all genders, motorcycle passengers, and supporters of the lifestyle.
All bike models are welcome at the event and in the club.
Blue Comet MC’s HQ is a 18-acre swath of well-maintained property whose dirt trails are used for the AMA Hare Scramble dirt bike races.
The club offers rental of its clubhouse and outdoor pavilion for special occasions and functions.
According to its website, the club was organized in 1913 in Lansdale under the name of “BLACK CATS” with an original membership of 13 riders; the club notoriously hung out at a bar of the same name they frequented in Point Pleasant, Pa. Today, the Black Cats bar still stands and is known as “Apple Jacks,” per the website.
The club name’s origin is from the Blue Comet train that club members came across in many of their travels.
“The club was formed by a group of people that wanted to promote a positive image of motorcyclists, to take part in events, travel as a group, and eventually be involved in motorcycle racing,” states the website.
