Featuring the Ross VanEtten Collection
Our Mission
The Rocky Mountain Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame, established in March of 1992, is recognized as a publicly supported, non-profit, educational corporation. The museum is run by an all-volunteer staff. Unlike other automotive and motorcycle museums, the Rocky Mountain Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame focuses on people. The names and faces of the pioneers of motorcycling and their contributions are captured in photographs and biographies throughout the museum.
The display of this memorabilia ensures that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy the history of early American two-wheeled ingenuity and preserve its legacy.
With the new interest in antique and classic motorcycles, a worldwide demand has developed for these machines and anything associated with them.
The drastic decline in the number of old bikes and memorabilia for sale is alarming. Our history and heritage, along with these machines, will disappear across the water. When they are gone, they are gone forever and before you know it, it will be too late!
To allow these value examples to disappear from the American culture would be a tragedy.
Photographs & Art
The collections of photographs are exceptional. Each photograph carries a detailed caption which explains the subject, event and illustrates a fine visual history of American motorcycling.
Original artwork, sculpture and rare prints fill the museum walls.
Educational Literature
The museum has a large collection of motorcycle factory literature. The extensive library, combined with personal knowledge of staff members of motorcycles and motorcycling history, provide an unequaled educational experience for everyone. Visitors may obtain quality copies to assist them in their own projects and expand their knowledge.
Memorabilia
A large portion of the museum is dedicated to authentic period memorabilia, photographs, art and literature. This includes a wide display of pins, patches, trophies, banners, clothing, accessories, sidecars, dealer signs and banners, as well as vintage leather apparel.
