Located in the picturesque town of Maggie Valley, NC, the 38,000 sq. ft. museum offers the World's largest collection of rare American motorcycles, cars from each of the ten decades and related memorabilia.

Representing the early years, there are over 30 motorcycle models made before 1916, including Oscar Hedstroms unique prototype. A Harley-Davidson Knucklehead and a collection of pre-war models cover the years 1929 to 1939. Race and Hillclimb motorcycles round out the collection as well as automobiles and gas pumps.

The focus of many over the past year or so has been women in motorcycling and the Wheels Through Time Museum is no exception.
