Taking place on the beautiful boardwalk of Wildwood, New Jersey, the 2016 Race of Gentlemen is designed to invite the public to get up close to the various motorcycles built by racers, shop owners and hardcore fans overall.

The event has grown in popularity in recent years and is also known as TROG, and it pays homage to American racing heritage, as well as the bikes the played protagonist to many success stories throughout history.

Another characteristic that makes the Race of Gentlemen unique, is the fact that it’s also open to vintage cars and hot rods.

The organizers emphasize that this is an event completely designed around the fans, and everyone simply wants to have a good time, which is also why they’ve brought an iconic “Wall of Death” stunt.

If listening to sweet bands, drinking good beer, watching cars and motorcycles race on the beach is your type of thing, don’t let the overwhelming hipster look of the whole thing turn you off, the Race of Gentlemen looks like a truly unique event.
