Motor Mania 2009 Shines Spotlight on One-of-a-Kind Autos
The Street Machines of Rochester will be hosting the Motor Mania event to celebrate the 35th anniversary. The show will be April 3-5 at The Dome Center, 2695 E. Henrietta Road, Henrietta. This event will feature top-quality cars, motorcycles, trikes, trucks and more from participants spanning Virginia to Canada. An event such as this has not been seen in the area in nearly a decade and is sure to be a memorable family experience in Rochester.
Excitement will build opening day when more than 300 local students are given a Motor Mania sneak-preview. These students represent several local school districts, vocational and technical schools in the Greater Rochester area and will have the chance to envision where their talents can take them.
The event is not short on entertainment and variety.
The Pinstriper’s Brush Blast and Benefit will be held throughout the weekend. This talented group of artists and designers will custom pinstripe or hand-letter any item provided to them.
The artists will also auction off one-of-a-kind artwork created exclusively for this event. All proceeds from the Brush Blast will benefit Hospice of Rochester.
Tony Cenzi, the nationally renowned custom motorcycle designer and owner of Cenzi Custom Cycles, will perform a three-day motorcycle build at Motor Mania. Tony Cenzi creates some of the best and most unique custom motorcycles in the country. During this event participants will see a master craftsman transform raw metal into a one-of-a-kind work of art. In June, the motorcycle created during this show will be auctioned off, with all of the proceeds going to benefit the James P. Wilmot Cancer Center at Strong Memorial Hospital.
Motor Mania will run from 4 - 9 p.m., Friday April 3, Saturday April 4 from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and on Sunday April 5 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is $7 for adults.
