Flint, MI — September 9, 2022
If you are in downtown Flint this weekend you are likely to hear the roar of motorcycles bouncing off the buildings and the brick roadways of Vehicle City. It’s “Bikes on the Bricks” and the streets will be lined with every sort of motorcycle you can imagine.
A full weekend of fun is scheduled with motorcycle displays, a police escorted ride, the Urias Globe of Death shows, a police motorcycle competition, vendors, food, and bands. Something for every age and every type of bike enthusiast.
The Urias Family
After performing for years in the Ringling Brothers, Barnum, and Bailey Circus, the Urias Family now brings their “Globe of Death” to the streets all around the world at events like Bikes on the Bricks.
Multiple motorcycles hurtling around the inside of a steel globe is thrilling. The excitement ramps up when the beautiful ladies outside the globe enter its interior and share the space with three motorcycles and their riders. Get as close as you dare.
Police Motorcycle Competition
Watch area police department motorcyclists compete on a course set up to test their riding skills. They weave in and out of cones spaced to see who has the ultimate control over their bike.
Vendors, Food, and Entertainment
Grab a Bikes on the Bricks shirt, browse the food trucks, and visit the vendor tents. Bring a folding chair to sit and enjoy the musical entertainment as bands cycle through the stage on both days. But, especially see all the bikes.
