Bike Show
12. juni, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F
This 1975 Kawasaki 750 two-strike triple was beautifully restored. I bet the paint and chrome looks better today than the day it rolled out the showroom door. In olden times, people rode brieflyLes mer
BMW Authority Bike Demo

Quinn Redeker led 2 other instructors in a demonstration of police rodeo skills. He was better than the others who were highly skilled. His balance and throttle control were superhuman.
Thunderstorm
12. juni, Forente stater ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F

Dinner at On Tap Tavern
13. juni, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F
We walked over to the On Tap Tavern for dinner. Even with the drinks, it will be the same price as the rally site vendors. There's the added benefit of the restaurant being air conditioned.

All good things come to an end and on the last day of the rally people got up early packed up and left. I was one of the last to leave and the club camping area looked so bare. Can't wait for the nextLes mer

Horicon Village on Brandt Lake
14. juni, Forente stater ⋅ ☁️ 77 °F
This little town was so scenic that I knew I had to pull over for a photo. This is at the very end of Brandt lake and I suppose the fountain is to keep the water clear or else to help the fishLes mer
