HOTRODCUSTOMSHOW, YOKOHAMA
2017 - Lost for Words
Nobody goes to Yokohama in December by accident. And those who do have a vague idea of what to expect. But to find the right words when all is over is hard. Every year. “Madness!” “… best I’ve ever seen - and that’s what I said last year too!” “gnarlier than Born Free!” “why only a few hours?” “how do they do it?”
The Hot Rod Custom Show, meanwhile in its 26th iteration, works like this: Sunday morning everybody is crowding round the entrance, they all know that time is short (9 hours, to be exact), and they all want a good spot for the Ride In. A selected few special guests then shake, rattle and roll their 2- and 4-wheelers under their own steam into the venue. This is world class.
