LEESBURG BIKEFEST….2014

  I guess, it’s just plain luck, that every year I’ve gone to Leesburg, the

weather has been fantastic, and this year was no exception, although, it was a mite warm!! ValGal and I went up for the day on Sat. April 26; couldn’t get my usual all-access arm band this year, because I don’t carry the insurance needed…(something new this year). We still had a whole town full of biker activity, and managed to collect quite a few decent images. Sad to say, (my private observation)...the event seems to be changing, as all big events do...more rules, (the insurance), some high prices on certain items, but, through it all, the Leesburg Partnership came through with a nice Media Center...air

conditioned, water, soda, snacks, places to sit and cool off...very nice...thank you!! The day-time crowd it seemed...was down a bit, over last year...not just me, I asked several people, and they agreed, but said at night, it livened up a bit...good!! Nice to see Radical Randy again, as well as Don Rogers from EASYRIDERS magazine...good friends…! All in all, it was a fun day...tiring...but fun!! Hope I can do it next year again...ride safe…

H&D ROADHOUSE

Three years ago, Harry and wife Deb acquired a bar business on Merritt Island, with the aim of turning it into a full-fledged biker bar. Well folks...I’m here to tell you, that they succeeded!! The 3 year celebration party on April 6, 2014, turned out to be a total success! Big crowd coming and going all day and night! Constant LIVE entertainment, by some of the county’s best bands, and, food...man the food was fabulous, and, plenty of it. Lots of (the usual) pretty girls strutting around, the clicking of pool balls,

the occasional roar of a big twin motorcycle, a dance-floor filled with jubilant party animals...I tell you, it was a blast!! The weather was virtually perfect as well! Harry calls the Roadhouse, Brevard County’s ONLY REAL biker bar, and by golly, I’m inclined to agree with him! One of the highlights of the day, was when Harry spoke to the whole crowd, thanking them all, patrons,

and staff alike, for helping to make this place...THE place to go for out and out...FUN!! It’s on SR 520, Merritt Island, right across from the Lincoln dealer...can’t miss it! Join me there soon...OK?
