Saturday's Events

Well, Skip Fordyce Harley-Davidson of Riverside had a big 70th anniversary party.  There were tons of bikes as well as a huge sale.  Given the current economy, this appeared to have worked out very well for the dealership.

I captured a couple images on digital to share:

This one had some interesting colors.  Overall, I think the low profile of this bike looked great.

Here's another cool looking Softail.  I sure do miss mine.

Following the gathering at Skip's, my wife, daughter, and I made our way down the treacherous 91 freeway to Sporty Specialties in Fullerton, Ca.  I was in search of some drag bars and found some on their site for a reasonable price.  I figured there might be a few other things there worth purchasing for the new project.

Unfortunately, after driving through traffic for quite some time, we arrived at the place to find it closed.  I spoke to several other shop owners nearby to find out that sometimes the guy closes to run an errand or go grab food, or who knows?  But, we didn't have much time to hang around for the guy as we had already made arrangements to attend the Roadhouse Biker Church in San Bernardino, Ca.  The wife had prepared a meal for the after church gathering and wouldn't want it to go to waste. So, we headed back.

Church that night was great as always.  There were a number of people present for the monthly "Spoken Word" ceremony that takes place.  I always enjoy the company of these fellow believers on motorcycles.

I suppose that'll be enough text for this post.  As always, ride safe.

Note:  As of this writing, the Sporty Specialty website was down.  It was up a couple of days ago, and I suspect they may be having a bit of trouble with the site.  I suggest giving them a call before you head down - a strategy I wish I would have used.
