Wheels Through Time is Shifting Gears Print E-mail
The Wheels Through Time Museum will be shifting its gears in 2009 towards new objectives and a new focus. America’s most renowned collection of rare vintage American Motorcycles will be relocating out of Western North Carolina to a currently undecided location in order to expand its horizons and broaden its impact.

Having relocated to Western North Carolina in 2002, the museum has been an outstanding success, preserving the history of hundreds of America’s rarest two- and four-wheeled machines and presenting them in a fascinating, natural ambience for over 280,000 visitors in just five short years. Now, the museum looks to broaden its impact, through both a new location and a new museum initiative of "Taking Wheels around the World".
