42 motorcycles & my Stella

Post by ScootLemont »

I stopped down to take a few pics for Patch.com for a Poker Run that benefits a local camp for sick kids.
They had 42 cycles leaving from this particular bar this morning (the other side of the street is also lined with bikes)

On guy said to me "I thought I had balls showing up on a Honda"

Everyone was really nice & I answered a few questions about my Stella.
Although I was invited to ride with them on the run, their route takes them on several stretches of highway (where they tend to open them up) so I had to decline.

I've gone on several poker runs with Harleys. They like me because I always have the tool they need to get running after they break down.

Cool photo and I'll tall ya' what, it would take one crazy a@@ SOB to mess with your Stella while surrounded by all those Harley's and owners.

Well, that's why we ride scooters! We need to give the "boys" more room down there without a tank in the way :wink:
