The rummage sale

Sellers: $20 a stall

9:00AM

Ready to sell

Shoppers tend to show up before this, so being set up by nine works in your favor.

What to bring

  • Cash and change. Small bills go quickly, so it helps to come with more than you think you'll need.
  • Tables and chairs. We aren't able to provide these, so plan on bringing your own.
  • Hangers or a rack if you're selling tees, leathers, or anything else that hangs better than it folds.
  • Bags for your buyers.
  • Something to weigh things down. It's an open lot, and September in Wisconsin can get breezy.

Everything you bring will need to fit inside your painted lines, and you're welcome to keep your vehicle parked in your space — it just counts toward the 9 × 18. If that's tight, a second space is always an option.

The Motoshow — year two

Custom and classic, two classes

Bring something honest. Built, chopped, bobbed, restored, or just old enough to have stories. Finished or not, rough or clean — if you put work into it or kept it alive, we'd love to see it. Free to enter, no pre-registration needed. Roll in the morning of, sign up at the show table, and we'll show you where to park. Everybody who walks the lot gets a vote: scan the QR code posted around the show area, pick your favorite bike and your favorite car, done.
