Well...I'm back from Bike Week....And all I gotta say is:
What a Fucking Major Disappointment.
There were way too many $90,000 Choppers, towed behind a $40,000 Escalade/Tahoe/Excursion, on an $8,000 trailer.
Almost nobody RIDES to Bike Week anymore.... What The Fuck? Over!
I was disgusted in a matter of two days time...I even left early... It was mostly a bunch of guys, cranking up the drag pipes, swilling some micro brew, watching the wet T-Shirt contests with their model girlfriends dressed in their BeBe tops, low rise jeans, or shorts, and a pair of sandals, with the belly button rings exposed. Did I mention that almost nobody RIDES to Bike Week anymore? What The Fuck? Over!....
Oh well...I had fun riding down the 500 miles with my 3 good buddies. And I had fun wrenching on my buddies bike for 2 hours while it broke down....(throttle cables snapped...doh!). And I did have some fun crashing out on the beach for awhile....but all in all...I certainly will not go down there again....1100 miles of riding in the last 6 days, only to get down there and feel like I was at the Mall.
I think I need to go to the range tonite, and blow out a few hundred rounds....

Well, the first 500 miles sounded like good times -- too bad the "culture" has commercialized. Bunch of duds, which are not what's in your gun. Nice to meet ya.

Well, you've just about summed it up in regard to Front Royal. Lots of bikers up here this weekend, using the locale as homebase for the Mem Day activity in D.C. Nice to see the town buzzing.
