Bike show next weekend

Aberdeen ABATE and the local branch of the FM Crusaders Motorcycle Club will present their 19th annual bike show and dance Saturday and April 21 at the Dakota Event Center, 716 Lamont St.

The show begins at 10 a.m. each day. Relevant, described as “Fargo’s favorite biker band,” will perform at 9 p.m. Saturday.

Fifty to 100 bikes will be on display. The event also includes dealers and vendors from South Dakota and surrounding states.

All of Saturday’s displays will continue April 21. That day will also include a tattoo contest from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Bike awards will be handed out at 4 p.m.

Carl’s Cycle Supply will have antique bikes on display. The event will also include several tattoo artists, airbrushing, glass etching, leather vendors and a silent auction.

Grant County Choppers from Herman, Minn., will set up a dynojet in the parking lot. A dynojet is a machine used to diagnose issues in motorcycles.

A weekend wristband is $12. That includes a $5 dance cover charge. People may also pay a $5 daily admission charge, which does not include the dance cover. Kids 12 and younger are admitted free with an adult.
