What was the bike parade through downtown Pullman?

75monza · 05-11-2012, 12:46 PM

I was just downtown eating lunch at Quiznos and a mini parade of bikes went down main street. I saw a couple of cruisers and a KTM being lead by what looked like 2 BMW police bikes. Was this some sort of organized ride?

I don't recall seeing any BMW police bikes in Pullman before. Are they new to the police force?

Anyway, congrats to all the new WSU/UI grads. Ride safe this summer.

You must have this wrong. BMW's do not lead KTM's.

There was some 500 mile mega ride sponsored by, I think, beaverton motorcycle... Supposed to be a 500 mile route, so they could have made it up your way.

Never seen any BMW police bikes in Pullman either. Palouse has a Harley police bike and WSU cops now are the proud owners of a couple Segways

No idea what this might've been.

If the Victorys were escorted by BMWs I'd have to guess it was a parade for AV's graduation.

......or a memorial ride for someone?
