Harley Casting Show 2016 in Jork
Harley Casting Show 2016 in Jork
On the first Saturday in August, the fifth Harley Casting Show 2016 event took place in Jork.
The family event, in the middle of Jork town center, at the „Altländer Markt“ attracts around 400 Harleys to the town every year. The Harley's take center stage and there are a few stalls around them that cater to the general public. The three-man team of Hubi, Joachim and Jutta go to great lengths every year to organize the event. This year, for the first time, the Harley-Davidson authorized dealer Hamburg Süd had a stand on site and showed its colors.
Many sponsors and a few dealers form the financial framework of the event, it's not about profit, I haven't been able to get a Coke in a 0.3 liter cup for €1.50 for a long time. But as long as the event remains on a small scale, there's no need to pay the authorities for security concepts and other things. A stage, a few good live bands and the whole thing is rounded off, plus the Harley casting, where the best 5 Harleys get a prize, plus meeting a few friends and like-minded people, and you've already had a perfect day in Jork.
There are also pins every year and this year there was an event T-shirt, which is now also available at the ice cream parlor at the market in Jork.
So it doesn't always have to be the big meeting, even at such a small one like in Jork there are many beautiful Harley's to see, some of them have made it into the gallery, make a note for 2017, the first Saturday in August, a little tour into the old country is always worthwhile.
