RIDE WAS NOT CANCELLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The permit for the official ride was told it was being pulled by the Police because of concerns,, but we rode ANYWAY!! I got there later than I wanted,, had some fuel issues on the bike, but still made it by 11am, bought my raffle tickets, Didnt win the new bike, or the moped or the 500 dollars gift card. But i did get free coffee, some big honking Oatmeal cookies with raisens,, and cocoa... I also got my annual run pins and shriners buttons, smaller crowd but nice clear day, my hands were cold as hell,, even with heavy gauntlet gloves, but there was propane heaters all over, plus when we rode to the hospital,, a nurse lady had a box of warming pads, the chemical type that stay warm for 10 hours and was giving them away, I stuffed them into my gloves for the ride home. No Spaghetti feed at the BSMC this year, but lots of events around town, Nice day for a ride. i got 92 miles on the wifes Sporty. I had put a 2>1 stainless super trapp set of pipes/muffler on it and it made a nice barking noise all day. No one called it a girls bike either.
Quite a few squids on Sport bikes,, Full Tilt Riders is one of the clubs,, another one with RR on their backs, most of them had big spiky mohawks on their helmets, about 12-15 of them, a few asian bikes, some European bikes, Saw Rick Chappelle on his Guzzi with heated gloves, jacket, seat and grips, He has the local Guzzi dealership, saw a number of the usual suspects, but NO BUELLS,
next ride is the Polar bear ride on Jan 1st. with pizza feed afterwards. bummer missed you guys.
