This event happens every year, but it is worth mentioning for those of you who will be in Daytona for Bike Week. This year they are shining the spotlight on 2 flat track legends- Parker and Springsteen. All of the proceeds go to the AMA Motorcycle Museum in Ohio. Plus, compared to a political fund raiser, it will be way more fun and way cheaper at only $49.00.
PICKERINGTON, OHIO – Racing legends Scott Parker and Jay Springsteen will be the guests of honor at the 21st Annual Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum “Friendraising” Breakfast on Friday, March 6, in Daytona Beach, Florida. The flat track champions will share stories with celebrated Harley-Davidson tuner Bill Werner, whose skills helped Parker and Springsteen to a number of their AMA Grand National Championships.
The Museum breakfast, a Daytona Bike Week tradition, allows attendees to mix and mingle with motorcycling’s biggest names, as well as receive rare inside look at their lives and careers. The event is open the public and tickets are $49 per person. All proceeds support the non-profit Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum and its mission of telling the exciting stories and preserving the history of American motorcycling.
The talents and accomplishments of Parker, Springsteen, and Werner have led each to be inducted into the AMA’s Motorcycle Hall of Fame. Parker, inducted in 2003, is considered one of the great motorcycle racers in the history of AMA racing. During his career, Parker was a nine-time AMA Grand National Champion and set an all-time record with his 94 Grand National Championship race wins, including 55 AMA National Mile wins and 35 AMA Half-Mile wins.
Parker is also a three-time winner of the AMA Pro Athlete of the Year award.
Like Parker, Springsteen is considered one of the best in AMA racing history. Inducted into the AMA’s Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2003, Springsteen is a three-time AMA Grand National Champion with over 40 National Championship flat track race wins.
At the 2009 Museum breakfast, Parker and Springsteen will look back at their astonishing careers through a discussion led by Bill Werner. Werner, one of the most successful tuners in AMA Grand National racing history, was inducted into the AMA’s Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2000. He offers a unique perspective on the careers of Parker and Springsteen, as he turned the wrenches for both.
