Glory Daze 2025
Man, this was the year. Everything clicked, and Glory Daze Motorcycle Show hit a new high. The lineup slapped, the weather was dialed, and the media love was off the charts. Alexa was back in the mix (last year she was fresh off bringing our daughter into the world), and the crowd? The greatest group of two-wheel freaks all grooving in harmony to a shared interest in custom motorcycles. The whole weekend buzzed with that wild energy you can’t fake. I’ve been at this a minute now, but this one just felt different in all the best ways.

If you’ve stumbled onto this page wondering what the hell Glory Daze even is, let me set the scene. It’s a weekend festival centered around an indoor invitational bike show loaded with custom and vintage builds that ooze personality. I cooked up the idea back in late 2018, and it’s been snowballing ever since. A grassroots gathering turned destination event, fueled by a community that gets down with the craft and celebrates the art of working with your hands.
Putting this thing together each round is a full-time hustle. I’m in it every day of the year: designing marketing materials, wrangling builders and vendors, locking in sponsors, and managing the chaos. It’s exhausting, but it’s the best kind of grind, not just for me but everyone involved. Big thanks and high fives to the team of family and friends who helped bring it all together the week of the show. I love you all.
Enough words, though. Have a look through the 100+ photos below, then mark your calendar for September 19-20, 2026. Peace.
