And as in the past, we will offer helicopter rides at R150 per person, plenty of food and beverage vendors, and a special entertainment area for children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The mix of classic cars, motorcycles, hot-rods, muscle cars and modified street machines is unique in the Gauteng region, and Calisto believes this will set the trend for future shows.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is something special about all the cars and bikes that come to our events. In July we had over 1 000 cars and many thousands of paying spectators who are intrigued about the movement. We will also be catering to owners of modern motorcycles, cruisers of the Harley and Indian variety as well as the latest superbikes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s all about checking out each other\u2019s toys. The secret of these shows is the common passion that exists amongst all petrol-heads, and it\u2019s a great way to meet new people, make new friends. And if you are new to the movement, watch out! Once the bug bites you may end up owning a classic car or bike sooner than you think. It\u2019s all part of a global movement that is sweeping the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/myjhb.co.za\/hogging-the-show\/\">MyJHB<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more on <a href=\"http:\/\/myjhb.co.za\">MyJHB<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Join the fun:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/add-your-event\/\">Add Your event<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mypr.co.za\/submit\">Submit a Press Release<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/directory\/\">Add your listing<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hog Lineup Bikers are about to shake up the genteel, placid world of the Classic Car movement at the Johannesburg Expo Centre, Nasrec, on December 7, 2014. \u201cThe mix of motorcycles, classic cars, street rods and modified street machines is all part of the natural movement we call Petrol-Head-Onism,\u201d says Paulo Calisto, organiser of Gauteng\u2019s [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3332],"tags":[6430,3123],"class_list":{"0":"post-42749","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-johannesburg-south-africa","7":"tag-hogging","8":"tag-show","9":"entry"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42749","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42749"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42749\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42749"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42749"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42749"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
