Legends of the West 2014
was held on Flag Day / Fathers Day weekend,
June 13 and 14, 2014.
Having June start on a Sunday, not a full weekend this year, is causing a few event reshuffles.
The 2014 Legends of the West Bike and Car Fest is now scheduled for June 13 & 14.
We are pleased to be on Flag Day/Father’s Day weekend and we’re already planning some special things to do, prizes to award, etc. to celebrate the occasions.
So mark your calendars now because June is a happening month in the Capital City!
The CCSO 11th Annual Extreme Motor Officer Training Challenge will again begin on Friday, with highly skilled motor officers from throughout the country competing for glory. If you have never witnessed this competition, it is fascinating and exciting in a hold-your-breath sort of way. Saturday is the main Show & Shine for both bikes and cars with plenty of food and drink, music and fun for the entire family.
Entry forms and more schedule details will be available shortly - watch this space...
Legends of the West 2013 is a
memory now, but it was a great event enjoyed by all. The CCSO
10th Annual Extreme Motor Officer Training Challenge was the hottest
competition in the West with Officers from as far away as Victoria,
BC Canada and Ft. Lauderdale, FLA. The Car & Bike Show & Shine
filled the streets from Telegraph to Second, music filled the air,
and both participants and visitors had a wonderful time. View the
videos (turn on your sound) and also browse the pictures below...
