That was a pretty good weekend (lotsa pics)
 

Finished up doing all my posts and pics from this weekend, and considering we had to do a book launch and get goodgirl ready to fly out this AM . . . this was a pretty busy weekend.

Friday we started by trying out a new sushi bar; we will definitely return

On Saturday I met up with a local riding club and went to the 3rd Annual Rod & Kustom BBQ, then we rode up to Walker's Cafe.

Sunday, Bartels' H-D was holding a benefit run; I did not have time to do the ride, but I went out for the pre-ride festivities

Pretty fun time

Nice photos baddog :thumbsup

that must be the fanciest Harley dealership in existence.

Great photos :thumbsup

They are known as the dealership to the stars. When I first met these guys they had a little shop under the 10 Freeway. Bikes would be lined up around the neighborhood.

I spot the Renegade. Though he's looking like he spends more at the plastic surgeon's than he does at the Harley shop these days.

Both are nice!!! :thumbsup:thumbsup

Going to classic car shows are a lot different when you find you are older than many of the classics.

I guess that means I am a classic now. Is that the male equivalent to "mature" ?

Nice pix! :thumbsup

Looks like a fun weekend (with beer involved at various points). :drinkup

http://craftbeerguy.com/wp-content/g...lvios_1147.jpg

I spent my weekend mostly re-painting and remodeling a bathroom. :Oh crap

Well, at least it's a fun place to catch a shower and hang out in again now (I'll spare you the pix). :)

Now my wife has the remodeling bug, so it looks like more projects for me every weekend for the foreseeable future. :helpme



:stoned

ADG

As long as it keeps you off the streets and out of trouble.

And yeah, there may have been a beer or two in the mix.

Nice photos... you even made Lincoln Blvd. look a little less ugly than usual.

Thanks; H-D dresses anything up. :)

That is a nice bike!

Sushi + harley !! strange mix that remind me a year we ate sushi at superbowl .... Not the right combos :-)

always good pics :thumbsup never tried sushi or tartare never will :)

Thanks . . . it is one of mine. :thumbsup

I remember about 7 years ago I took my daughter on a ride up the coast to a popular biker destination.

http://www.gotbaddog.com/wp-content/...xride_6553.jpg

On the way back I had to pull over to make a call and she made some wise-ass comment about Harleys and Starbucks and cell phones. I had to laugh;she was right, times have changed.

And sushi is a very popular destination for this biker. One Saturday: http://www.gotbaddog.com/bikes-beer-sushi/

I miss riding! Next summer I am planning a come back!

So what happens to the guys who show up to Harley fests riding something that is... not a harley? How is that commonly dealt with?

No one gives a shit what brand motorcycle someone rides. What is a Harley fest?

Looks like a total redneck town, white guys with confederate flags, complete "Red State" movie scene. 100% voted Bush one can bet and win :thumbsup

That sushi looks fukn great, I want some now. Might get a nice dose of it next weeken. :)

Nice pics

Would you mind pointing out ONE confederate flag . . . we won't bother addressing your obvious ignorance with the last part of your statement.

Looks like you had a blast!

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I try.

I just hope there is a Dutch translation that he will understand.

You wanna tell me you and your biker friends voted Obama ? Nothing ignorant about getting impression the town shown is a typical Red State town in the Mid West.

I was thinking you were pretty ignorant before you responded; I really underestimated how ignorant you are.

So, where are these confederate flags you were talking about and which one of those photos made you think this must be in the Midwest?

http://www.gotbaddog.com/wp-content/...xride_6553.jpg

Neptune's Net . . . yeah, must be somewhere in Iowa.



Secondly, what makes you think all of these people are my friends? And for the record, I have lots of friends that voted for Obama. BTW, at no point did Obama ever run against Bush. That being said . . .

you don't think he voted for Obama?

I meant no offense, just curious.. I'm ignorant about motorcycles, I just figured most Harley riders stick together.. I never really see any crotch rockets at these things in the photos that I see. I just thought there might be a funny approach for people who showed up with a bike that "doesn't belong" or something. :)
