Those people who have been in the scene for a number of years remember attending single-day events on a regular basis. Back then, that's what a majority of the shows were like, but these days having a one-day event usually means a minor event with limited attendance. However, Corey Hingle has successfully shot that notion out of the water by holding one of the most insane events of 2007: Big Easy Motorfest 4.
After a memorable night on the town, it was time to get down to business and see what made Motorfest such a success. The location of the event was perfect, sitting right on the water, at beautiful Lake Ponchartrain. As you can see by the images on these pages, this was not your typical single-day show. Plenty of vendors, beautiful weather, and entertainment brought out tons of sick rides from all over the South. And what event in the South would be complete without a crowd-pleasing bikini contest to crown Miss Big Easy Motorfest? Even after the show ended, Mr. Hingle and crew kept the ball rolling with a poker run, drag competition, and a kickass after-party at the local watering hole, The Beach House.
