It was another AWESOME year for the run. We all had a great time, regardless of the weather. There were some very serious storms in the area, so a few of us held up at a small pub in Woodstock and let the worst go by.
We initially pulled out with about 50-60 bikes, and we were up front. It was pretty cool looking in the rear view mirror and seeing a sea of head lights behind.
Then, all of a sudden....they were gone!
We're like "WTF?....where did everybody go?"
Turns out we were following the wrong crowd! They had no intention of actually going on the run. They just showed up to see what was going on!
.........
So, we pulled over, and headed back to hook up with the group.
Of course, we never did catch up with them. The weather was terrible, and we seriously doubted that they were going to try to make it to Elk Horn, Wisconsin. The weather was even worse up there with Tornado warnings all over the place.
We rode around the storm for a while and then right smack into it to get to Galt Airport...where the the "run" was to finish. But when we finally got to Galt Airport, they were telling us that it had been moved to D.C. Cobbs, in Woodstock.
Apparently, Galt Airport had all the tents blown away...including the stage for the bands!
"D.C. Cobbs" is a relatively small bar for 500, or so, bikes to show up at.
But, we did. And it was AWESOME!!! As were the bands! Every one of them were just world class.
Ruben was awesome also. He spent the entire day mingling with everyone. Buy the time the day was over, you left there feeling like you just made a great new best friend.
Ruben is definitely a class act.
Once again...I can't wait for next year!......
Oh yeah....speaking of "class acts".....I finally got to meet our very own
VMX12!!!....GREAT GUY!
I was hoping we would hook up again sometime during the day.
He, and his friend, had disappeared momentarily, and the next thing I new my group was getting antsy and wanted to get on the road, and were all pulling out.
Of course we (Joyce and I) pulled out with them, and I never seen
VMX again.
I hope they were safe, and had a good time where ever they wound up....
And, I also ran into
BearsFanGlenn!
That is one seriously cool guy!....just wait till you see the pics.
I will be posting the pictures in just another day or so.
That's it for now fellow brethren DaBearz fans!
Hope ya'all had a kick azz weekend!...
