Skip Fordyce Bike Night Recap

Friday, August 20th was the second to last bike night at Skip Fordyce for 2010.  Only one more to go.

I decided to catch up with the folks from Roadhouse Biker Church in San Bernardino at the Hideout.  Once at the location, only Pastor Denver was to be found.  5:30 rolled around and we rolled as well.

"How do you feel about lane splitting?", Pastor Denver asked.
"I was hoping we would", I answered.

When it came to lane splitting the 91 freeway traffic, even the size of the Road Glide didn't slow Pastor Denver down.  He proceeded to thread the needle.  I followed.

Once there, we went our separate ways. I met up with some people that just returned from Sturgis and other friends who would be present.  I checked out some bikes, ate some of the complimentary food provided, enjoyed some bike talk, and listened to the live music.

The band was great.  The lead singer had a great set of lungs on her.  Everyone left their seats when she performed a little Janice Joplin.  She had a lot of energy.  The rest of the band was equally impressive, with a keyboardist, horn player of some type, drummer, guitarist, and bassist - quite a band.

This was a very good turnout.  Last month paled in comparison.  There were many bikes and many familiar faces.  It was definitely a good time not to be missed.

I took a few pics using the lousy Blackberry camera.  It was the only device I had with me.  I figured it would do.  I'll post 'em as soon as I can get them onto the computer.

In the meantime, mark your calendars for the last bike night of the year at Skip's.  You don't want to miss it!
