Thank you to all who showed up,
we had about 50 bikes meeting at the Aldermans office. After the bike
blessing done by CMA we went inside to give out the awards, as we got ready
to leave and during the meet up it rained like hell. Dan Harper explained it
this way, Dave, Jack, Taylor, Cowboy & Boz were playing cards and the rain
was actually the sweat dripping off the beers. We took off in the rain
headed for Billy Goats on madison, we got to about Harlem & Bloomingdale and
couldn't see a block in front of us. We went down Bloomingdale and went up
to the Loon cafe where we had a great lunch, Crash and a crew did make it to
Billy Goats and then Crash met us at the loon. Bill Lloyd showed up and we
presented him with the Man of the Year award and he accepted the Club of the
Year award on behalf of the Teamster Horsemen. Then it was off to find Magoo
who was diligently working on the new Blue Steel Clubhouse, we presented him
with his half of the Odd Couple award and then it was off to Wildfire HD. We
got there and just as we started drying out....It happened again, the rain
was following us everywhere. We all made it back home safely and had a damn
good time. If you missed it.....YOU REALLY MISSED IT, we do ride even in the
rain thats why we put on the flyer RAIN OR SHINE. Gil Ross took a crapload
of pictures and they will be up on the groups as soon as possible. Thank you
to all who showed up and got a little wet with us, I think Boz would have
been proud and the whole event wasn't a bust after all.
