The The Seattle Cossacks Motorcycle Stunt and Drill Team at the Spokane Motorcycle Show on 3/14/2026.
A mid sized city like Spokane having a motorcycle show is great. We got
on up on on ya Seattle, again! All the brands are represented by local
dealers, with vintage bikes on display and a swap meet of mostly old
iron and bit and pieces is for sale. Also this year the Seattle
Cossacks Motorcycle Stunt and Drill Team put on two shows on Saturday.
I have to get my Triumph dig in. This is a Tiger Cub a 200cc 4 stroke engine produced from 1952-1965.
Hopefully these Bag It and Drag It Customs bike have a rear suspension
to raise the bike a bit while riding it.
I prefer the older iron:
This is where my lust for motorcycles began in the early 1960's. I never owned a tote goat but I wanted to.
Then it was on to harass the Triumph dealer regarding the where a bouts
of my 2026 Tiger Sport 800 Tour. Mission accomplished. Then it was on
to see the Seattle Cossacks Motorcycle Stunt and Drill Team put on a
show. These bikes are kick start. Some of them didn't want to fire up
right away. It was interesting to watch them get the bikes running.
The stunt is a warm up. They are using one hand to ride the bike while the other is on another bike.
Keep in mind it was in the 30's during this show and snowed in Spokane
the night before. At my house 400' higher than the show location we had
6" of snow on the ground.
I thought videos would be a better medium so here are a few videos I
created to share the Seattle Cossacks Stunt and Drill Team. Itchy Boots
is safe!
These guys have serious skills!
Stunts don't always go to plan. Look at the rider's expression in the last second of the video.
Putting on a show, shining a bald head and a dismount with flair!
Always the professionals and with a smile the first thing they do after the show is invite children to come sit on the bikes for a photo. Then they meet with anybody who wants to talk about the bikes and the show. Fantastic.
