    We have the MSRA Back to the 50s show every June here in St Paul, MN at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. Just about 12,000 cars 1964 and older this year on 330 acres. There are old cars all over the roads during the show.

    The Minnesota State Fairgrounds also has hosted the national Back to the 50s in the past although I think the last time was 1989.

    16th year for this Cruise In. They had to do something, since the annual Honda Homecoming kind of went away. Honda no lomger makes their Motorcycles here. Seemed each year, cycle owners would come back to the plant, hang out, buy things for their "Goldwings" or whatever model they had. Then they'd have a BIG parade on the last evening, adding all sorts of lights and such to show off. Honda closed that plant, the Homecoming kind of just petered out.

    Cruise-in started at the fairgrounds ( register area) then a parade to downtown. Spreads out to fill all the "parking spots" around. For this neck of the woods..280 is pretty large.
