Motorcycles, the pub and rock music have always made a great combination, with the October long weekend seeing Woodstock's Memorial Hall and Woodstock Hotel filled with riders from across the region, alongside visitors camping in the oldest commissioned race track in the country.
Organiser Danny Williams said the name Woodstock was synonymous with rock n roll, and that "Bikes are part of the furniture of Woodstock."
Mr Williams emphasised the importance of investing back in the community, to ensure events like the Woodstock Classic can continue for years to come; "What we've done is set up this committee called Woodstock Revival. We're trying to set up a war chest for a bigger event, but we're sharing it. Any funds raised are kept for the next event but we'll spread it through the village. The school's trying to send kids overseas, we'll help there, and Soldier's Park needs maintenance - we can help there."
While large festivals like Bluesfest and Splendor are facing challenges in big cities, Mr Williams says there's room for more in towns and small halls across the region.
All of the hard yards put in by Woodstock Revival are part of a broader mission to raise the profile of Woodstock and the festival, as well as maintenance of the Memorial Hall.

With performances from Keith Potger and others throughout the day, the festival was a success that Mr Williams hopes to repeat next year.
"The Woodstock Show pulls 3-4000 people every year. Woodstock is a very dynamic town, and the progress association has been taking care of the town very closely so they're lucky in that sense - but you make your own luck: they've worked hard at it."
