Blue Knights Tx XX Meeting 8-23-08

Saturday, 8-23-08 was an extremely busy day for the area. The Hotter-N-Hell-Hundred bicycle race was going on (12,00 riders from all over the country) and Red River Harley-Davidson was having its 105th Anniversary Party with food, bands, and all kinds of stuff and it was a rest stop for riders heading up to Milwaukee for the huge Harley-Davidson 105th Anniversary Bash. For more info on the Hotter-N-Hell-Hundred click this link:http://www.hh100.org/. For more info on Red River Harley Davidson & the going ons there, click this link: http://redriverharley-davidson.com/. The reason I mentioned the above is because it may of accounted for our shortage of members at tonight's meeting. I know several rode in or had to work at the bicycle race and several were working at the Harley thing. Plus others are out of town on vacation and such..But scroll down and check out the few who did make it and REMEMBER: IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE PICTURE BIGGER, JUST CLICK ON THE PICTURE!


Entertainment for tonight's meeting was reduced to me telling stories and singing some of my favorite Pavarotti tunes...

The members that showed are left to right: Clint, Rodney & Steve..I can honestly say, they were not impressed with the entertainment selection...

Here are Clint, me & Steve...They work weekends and are usually with us on the weekday rides. We are putting another ride together for the 2nd week in Sept, on a weekday..

At the meeting we covered the RGC Travel Pin Award, the current dangers of wearing the colors following the shooting death of a Hells Angel by an Iron Pig member in Sturgis, future rides & events & recruitment. The meeting over, Rodney, Steve & Clint prepare to leave..

That will end this post. Next meeting is Tuesday, 8-26-08 and I hope more members attend as well as those who wish to join or renew their membership. Scroll down for more events, rides & posts and don't forget to click on the "older posts" link at the bottom of EACH page for more posts, back to January 08. Until next ride & post, ya'll be careful out there, ride safe, watch your back and keep the rubber on the road......................JOHN
