. Swap Meet with hard-to-find used parts and desirable new merchandise

. Free Custom Motorcycle Show for everyone who rides to the event

. Live Punk Rock from popular local and nationally acclaimed bands

. Great Food & Beverages

. Epic riding on twisty LA County mountain roads

. Fresh air and sunshine at Mountain High Ski Resort, SoCal’s most popular ski area

Tickets for spectators are $30 per person, and include free motorcycle parking and bike show entry for everyone who rides. All areas of the CHOP MEET at Mountain High Ski Resort are paved, so vendors and spectators can look forward to remaining clean and dust-free. Mountain High Ski Resort features awesome dining beneath the majestic pines of the Angeles National Forest.

Hot Bike, Custom Baggers & Street Chopper magazines will be hosting a photo studio at the CHOP MEET to take pictures of winners from select CHOP MEET bike show classes.
