Pack a lunch so you have something to do while you wait on the side of the road for traffic to clear. Been twice, never again. Too many meat heads walking around trying to look cooler than the rest of the meat heads! ![]() It is very fun to walk down the street and see all the different (cough) bikes..... Like one might have low bars and the next might have high bars or chrome grips or different type of air cleaner. ....it's sooo fun. But that's what it's all about isn't it? To ride 5 mph for 30 miles just to park and show off your bike? Count me in. |

^^^Seriously OP... why would you spend a perfectly good day (especially as it's getting closer to the end of the good weather) sitting in all that traffic just to bump elbows with a couple thousand people admiring their bikes all day. So many roads to ride.... so little time..... | |

But, it's worth doing once, AND it'll be great weather. And if you like to look at hundreds of guys in leather chaps, this is the place. If you start thinking "Y.......M...C...A!" just don't get TOO excited, if ya know whut I mean, Clem.... -T_T |

| Shredder Joined: May 2011 From: Everett. WA I Ride: GS1150 Rat bike, NSR(G)500cc two stroke,CBR 900rr | I'm just sayin it sucks trying to get there and find a spot way down on some side street to park. Just to walk around and watch all (most all) the dip-sh*ts riding for the most part the same ol bike wearing the same ol getup. ![]() I guess it would be fun to people watch if there was some place to set(cops run you off). But I'd need a nice buzz on and I do not drink and ride so that's out. I've heard of people buying bikes just to go to stuff like this. To each their own I guess? Just too much traffic in and out, kills the whole thing. Not worth it to people watch. Also don't like standing in line for hours to get over priced food. ![]() |

Personally It's all about the bikes.. I like seeing them all and it's one of those times where cars are in the minority... All kinds show up.... some will hate, some won't.... It is what it is...... I'm going to check it out and posted when and where I'm going... It's not like the chap crowd is gonna hold ya down and put tassels on your pegs...... | |
