Did 100 miles today just cruising SE MA, following the Yard Sale Signs. What a lovely day it has been.
I’d love to go to Sturgis someday.

Lol!
Put the First Air Cavalry in charge of “Negotiations”, I can just see a couple of thousand Sturgis Bikers comin’ down the highway with air support.
Try this: Thousands of Democrats to gather for a Joe Biden Rally...this is not about Covid-19....

“Try and stop 250,000 bikers.”
Stopped at Breezewood, PA for gas about 30 years ago on a Memorial day weekend Friday.
It was after midnight and I was on my way to D.C.
A bunch of motorcycle guys pulled in. I was scared to death. All I remembered about motorcycle gangs was the Hell’s Angles.
Turned out to be a Rolling Thunder group headed to D.C. to celebrate our veterans!!
Great guys! Tough stuff and sweethearts. Great night! They pumped my gas for me and we had a blast talking.
Bikers vs Indians? That hound end well.
The Indians would have to sober up first....
Injuns on the warpath.......
My understanding is that over 100,000 were at the rally!
Some of those bikers will actually be riding Indians
Time to play Bikers and Indians?
Looks like they’re fixing to play bikers and injuns.
“Thousands of bikers heading to South Dakota rally to be blocked at tribal land checkpoints”
