This is a fantastic automobile show on par with Pebble Beach or Amelia Island. Of special interest to me this year was the introduction of bicycles in the show.
SF Concorso bicycle display
Though the bikes were not judged this year, the organizers indicated that they would be next year. the bicycle entrants were however each given a Directors Award ribbon for our time and expense. Of course we were treated to VIP credentials and privileges.
A highlight for me, as I am also an avid sports car owner was a chance to mix it up with Sir Sterling Moss, arguably one of the greatest race car drivers of all time. Here I have Moss on my left, a D-Type Jaguar and an OSCA MT4 in front of my “54 Austin Healey 100. I won’t mention what our speed was in the photo to protect the innocent.. ;~)
Too much fun!
Here is my “winning” entry:

In addition to my entries there was a Columbia ordinary, a Bates, a Cinelli, and a Guerciotti.
