The Wheels Through Time amazing motorcycle museum is now Dale’s Wheels Through Time Museum. It’s actually sorta old news from the AMCA last year. If you’re not a member consider joining. They produce the best, highest quality, most informative magazine in our industry currently.
Back to the old news. As of last fall the motorcycle museum in Maggie Valley, North Carolina, will be known as Dale’s Wheels Through Time. I suspect that the original name was too generic, so he added his name for clarification.
Beginning over 50 years ago, Dale, who has ben recognized as an AMCA Honorary Member, made it his mission to preserve the history of American transportation. After 24 years as a successful Harley-Davidson dealer in Mt. Vernon, Illinois, Dale moved to Maggie Valley, where he spent the last 17 years shaping his museum into a world-class institution. The Collection includes 375 of the country’s rarest and most-historic vehicles, spanning 115 years of motorcycles history.
The last time I had the pleasure of touring Dale’s he told amazing histories about each bike, and he could start and ride each one.
More that 1.5 million people, representing almost every country on the glove have visited Dale’s. Dale has also shared his passion through TV shows, including “What’s in the Barn” and “American Restoration.” He’s also helped Bikernet and 5-Ball racing with some of our projects.
