Brent
Hollowell lives in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina and probably has the largest
collection of BMW motorcycles and parts of anyone in North Carolina. Brent
began his association with BMW motorcycles in the late 70's when he was
employed as a motorcycle courier in Washington DC. The Company he worked
for provided BMW /2 motorcycle's to their couriers. The /2 has a low center
of gravity, excellent reliability and was perfect for dodging in and out
of traffic on the congested streets of Washington DC.
After his stint as a courier rider, Brent went off to do other things. In 1992, his interest in BMW's started again when he saw a 1968 BMW /2, the same type of BMW bike he rode as a courier, listed for sale in a local news paper.

Brent
bought this bike and after a careful restoration, rode the the BMW to
the 1993 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota. This first beemer led
him on a quest that didn't stop until he had collected several of the
old machines.
Today, Brent is a member of the Airhead Beemer Club and the Air Marshall of North Carolina. This national Club is dedicated to helping owners of the old Airhead BMW motorcycles keep their bikes on the road. The Club also promotes Rally's and other activities that keep the interest in older BMW's alive. Brent also owns High Country Motorcycle Camp, a motorcycle only campground located in the mountains of western North Carolina. Also see Mid Winter OBX BMW Motorcycle Therapy Session
