` B.I.N. RUN...2014


As luck would have it...the weather for the 2014 BIN Run and party was not as we would have hoped for. It started out a little rainy and overcast, and, later, turned into a full fledged "down burst"!! 
The riders were already under the giant pavilion at Wickham park, however, when that nasty piece of weather hit, the rain was horizontal, so, it blew right into the pavilion!! 
Big Daddy, 
the band playing at the time, was literally blown off the stage!! BUT, we all survived!! Lots of food, drink, and dedicated people, who stuck it out to help any needy bikers who found themselves in need of some kind of assistance...that’s what BIN is all about. Need help...? Contact Ellen Gochenauer on Facebook...she’ll do the rest!!

NANCIE'S CREW JAM

Here’s a gig that’s been around for years now, and I believe the 22nd party was far and away...the best yet. Terrific bands, good food. A real nice (and friendly) crowd, and the weather was just about perfect!! This party kinda coincided with Nanci’s birthday, so, it was a double treat for her. NO, I ain’t gonna tell you how old she is..All I know is that she and Chuck worked damn hard to put this all together, and it showed. A bunch of the Brothers were there too, to help celebrate. And babes...whew!! Lots of them floatin’ around all day long too. They too, were very friendly! But, the name of the game here was brother-and-sisterhood. It’s what it’s all about. Looking forward to the next Crew Jam...thanks Nanci...it was a BLAST!!!

HARLEY RENDEZVOUS


Way back, in 1984, a good friend of mine talked me into a ride to up-state New York, to an event called The Harley Rendezvous. I had heard of it, but had never made any plans to attend. Wife, Sandy, hopped on the back of my Hog, and with 4 other friends, we were off! BHeautiful weather for the ride, and after about 5 hours and several beer stops, we made






it to Duanesburg, N.Y., and wound our way through some hill country, and finally...Indian Look-out Country Club...new home of the infamous "Vous!" We camped for 3 days...good weather...not-so-good food, terrible sanitary facilities, lots of trudging around, BUT, good photo opps. That’s when we broke into Paisano Publications with some good Vous photos!! We left the place in sunshine, but about 35 miles south, we hit rain...big time, for about the next 200 miles! My dear wife...(GOD Rest Her Soul)...was not a happy camper!! But, we made it home high and dry...(good rain gear!) I have since made that trip 19 more times...several from my present home...Florida!! If you get the chance...make that event...you’ll thank me!!!

Steel City Hillclimb

Living in Florida, we don’t have motorcycle hillclimbs!!! BUT, back in Pennsylvania, namely , Freemansburg, we had a fabulous 4-Star pro hillclimb, in what was called Steel City. They ran twice a year...June, and Sept., and was sponsored by Bushkill Valley MC. This was action to beat all!!! Nitro powered
machines roared up that hill in mere seconds...thrills and spills galore! And babes.....well let me tell you...they were the cutest ever!!! Then, after the event ended, there were the "after parties!!" WOW!! It was a day of fantastic fun. I’m wondering if you trans-planted Lehigh Valley folks remember the HILLCLIMBS like I do!!

LEESBURG BIKEFEST

   
 Well Troops, it’s almost that time again...Leesburg Bikefest is looming on the horizon...April 25, 26, and 27, 2014.
This event rivals the "other big party" in many ways. No 4-wheelers on Main St....Open containers ARE allowed on the street, and, the Law...although present, are very mellow and friendly!! There are stages all over town, featuring top notch bands, along with motorcycle thrill shows, the famous Rat’s Hole Chopper Show,
vendors galore, for just about everything, and did I mention GIRLS??? The Miss Rat Mate competition tops ‘em all, plus all the countless little darlin’s all over town, struttin’ their stuff.


Lots of good food available as well as drinks if you so desire. Plenty of comfort stations too, and benches to sit and rest yer weary dogs!!! SO, take a run up to Leesburg this year, and check it out...you’ll thank me. I’ll be there...maybe I’ll shoot YOUR picture!!!
