From this year's Riding Into History at the World Golf Hall of Fame in Saint Augustine, Florida. A yearly event exhibiting vintage and antique motorcycles from around the world.
There are usually around 300 or so motorcycles exhibited. Definitely worthwhile if you can make it.
The HD FL model was given a new frame in 1958 which included a rear swingarm suspended by a pair of coil-over-shock suspension units. In honor of this fully suspended chassis, the FL's model name was changed from Hydra-Glide to Duo-Glide. Of course, you would know all that if you know your Harleys. I had to look it up; primarily to see if the pictured dress was the standard wear for MCs in 1958. It wasn't as far as I can tell. By the way, the 15th Street Cafe was unique and the food was good.

The Duo Glide was the second name attributed to the FL Seriesintroduced in 1941.which used a 74 cu in (1,210 cc) version of the "Knucklehead" OHV engine The FL continued relatively unchanged until 1948, when it and the EL were given redesigned "Panhead" engines of the same capacities as before. These engines had several improvements over the earlier "Knuckleheads", including self-adjusting hydraulic lifters and aluminum cylinder heads to reduce weight and improve cooling.The U and UL flathead twins were discontinued in 1948, leaving the OHV EL and FL models as Harley-Davidson's large-frame motorcycles
(FL) Hydra-Glide
From 1949 a year after receiving the "Panhead" engine, the FL was given a new front suspension featuring hydraulically damped telescopic forks, replacing the leading link spring suspension of the time These forks were standard on all big twin models for 1949, including the E, EL, F, and FL, Harley Davidson offered the spring suspension units on these models, During their debut model year of 1949, Harley-Davidson referred to their new suspension systems as the "hydraulic front ends". Harley-Davidson's marketing department promoted the new suspension systems by renaming the big twin models "Hydra Glide" for the 1950 model year
(FL) Duo Glide
The FL model was given a new frame in 1958. This frame included a rear swingarm suspended by a pair of coil-over-shock suspension units. In honor of this fully suspended chassis, the FL's model name was changed from Hydra-Glide to Duo-Glide.
(FL) Electra Glide
The third and final change given to the name of the basic FL model would occur in 1965, the final year of the "Panhead" engines. These last "Panheads" were the first "big-twin" Harley-Davidson engines to be equipped with electric starters, the Servi-Car having received electric start the year before. This innovation for Harley-Davidson was greeted with the new model name of Electra Glide

While on vacation in Virginia we spent some time at Big Walker Lookout. My wife, some of her family and I all enjoyed our visit here. On the BW Country store, they had a wall full of license plates.

On Monday during our vacation in Virginia, my wife and I joined family at Big Walker Lookout. On the property is the BW Country Store. There is an exterior wall full of signs and license plates on the store.
The 'Duo Glide' came after the Hydra Glide and before the Electra Glide in Harley Davidson's production history. The jukebox behind is in keeping with the period in which this model appeared.
Postcard I received from Gutterridge Harley-Davidson, Danville IL, notifying me that turn signals I had ordered for my Sportster had arrived.
