US - Mark your calendars! On Thursday, July 26, two of motorcycling’s favorite stars will be honored by the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum. At 6pm, Malcolm Smith will cut the ribbon on the new “Malcolm!” exhibit. The fourth in a series of legends exhibits at the Museum, “Malcolm!” celebrates the life and career of the renowned off-road rider and star of On Any Sunday. Smith’s family and friends, including a number of On Any Sunday co-stars, will be on-hand for the dedication ceremony. Immediately preceding the “Malcolm!” dedication, seven-time AMA Supercross champ Jeremy McGrath, and his family, will unveil a new sculpture for the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum’s permanent collection. The sculpture, a life-size bronze of McGrath, was commissioned as a tribute to McGrath’s record-setting career by Live Nation and crafted by artist Steve Posson.
The July 26 celebrations have been scheduled to immediately precede AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days, July 27-29 in Lexington, Ohio, a short 90 minute drive from the Museum. The Vintage Motorcycle Days event draws over 40,000 enthusiasts annually. This year the featured marque of Vintage Motorcycle Days is the Harley-Davidson Sportster and legends Willie G. Davidson and Jay Springsteen will serve as Grand Marshals.
