2010 DESMO BBQ / Concours d'Elegance

ducs in a row

DESMO’s Tenth Annual BBQ was held at the Thomas Bull Memorial Park on Sunday, August 15, 2010. The weather was a bit lacking, but that didn't hamper the enthusiasm. Our biggest crowd yet came out to chow down, show off their bikes, and to compete in our raffle. Ex-racer Cook Nielson was on hand to sign autographs and swap stories, and helped judge the great bikes in our bike show.

Allen W., meanwhile, won Best Vintage, for his 1980 900SS - beating out an earlier 900SS - and becoming a repeat-winner.

  trophy kill?

The trophies were truly inspiring; I'm not sure how the People's Choice award winner got home a two-foot tall trophy, but I know it will be proudly displayed on Jody's mantle.

Many thanks to our many sponsors, including Spectro Oil (for their 5th year of support), and to new sponsors (like Bazzaz Performance - who donated a fuel injection mapping). This year's sponsors include:
