Up north, between Honor and Traverse City, Michigan, on the corner of US 31 and Gonder Road, there is an orange and black brick building. This is Cycle-Moore shop and campground. In the winter the campgrounds are decorated with lights and figures for families to enjoy. Have you ever stopped in? Well, you should!
Cycle-Moore was founded in 1975 by Steven and Shirley Moore. Their website gives a good glimpse into the heart and soul of this couple and their family. Long-time bikers, both of them, with one heck of a good story to tell.
If you love motorcycles at all, you must stop in to see the museum. I plan on interviewing Steve and Shirley in the near future, but here's a taste of what you will see there. I look around every time I go there and still find something new to see!

| Currently on display in the front of the shop, this old cushman based scooter was the work of a couple of boys. They got in some trouble, so their dad hung the bike up from the barn rafters where it hung for years. The bird's nest actually had an egg in it when they first got this bike in the shop. |
If you are looking for bikes to buy, need some advice, or repairs on your bike, this is a great spot to go. If you are patriotic, this is a great place to be. If you just like looking at old bikes, well, you get the idea! Give it a visit soon, ok?
