Spring has sprung

#1 Unread post by Bubba »

Just got back from a nice 3 hour ride. Temps here in New Jersey are 65 degrees and rising. Supposed to be nicer tomorrow.
The cobwebs are slowly disappearing and the butt is starting to toughen up. :lol:

On my fourth day in a row of riding to work here in Jersey. A biker friend here at work and I are aiming at "five of five" for this week.

I wanted to ride to AC to a bike show with the local RAT pack this Saturday, but they're forecasting rain now. :cry: I'm not an eager rain rider. Why couldn't it hold off just one more day? Guess I shouldn't complain, I could be living in Alberta, after all!

Is the show in AC the same as last years where the Tuttles showed Up? If it is, I really didn't enjoy it. The bikes all started to look alike, after a while, plus hardly any vendors.
BTW: Rained last year too.

Billing is "2nd Annual A.C. Motorcycle Showcase featuring: Dave Perewitz, Indian Larry Legacy, Doug Keim, Porky's Chopper Co. and Michele Smith. There are local dealers, shops and builders as well as plenty of vendors." Is that what you went to last year?

If we go, it's as much for the ride with the RAT Pack as for the destination. There are some very nice people in our local Pack.

Don't know. Those guys were there last year too as well as builders from across the country. If it's the "2nd", I don't think there would have been two shows in one year, last year. Probably the same. All I know is they wouldn't let me take a vidio camera in. That sucked.
Of course, Michele Smith might be worth the drive in the rain. :wink:
