Audrain Auto Museum's Concours d'Elegance is always a favorite to attend, and this year was no different! The culmination of Motor Week showcased many classic, antique, and prestigious cars and even some motorcycles. We displayed the 1908 Harley-Davidson Model 4 Strap Tank, though parked next to Joe Biden's 1967 Corvette Sting Ray, it was at times difficult to get to!

More important than the vehicles were the many friends we get to spend time with during Motor Week. (The new Fort Adams location this year might even have been preferred over The Breakers!)
