Is it OK to ride on Easter?

I figure after church and my families annual Easter brunch it would be ok to go on a nice long ride. It's going to be in the mid 70's today.

i dont see why not, i am going for one

Frank

We are going on one as long as we can get away with

Nope, have to work.

After church, what better way to enjoy God's creation?

Its Ok to ride on Easter .....but Jesus has to get his first! Just kidding.

Now, Dwight cant ride on Easter unless he GOES to church first.

You're going straight to hell!

Sure you can ride on Easter after all its the day Jesus had risen because he heard there was a good sale at the triumph dealer.

"""You're going straight to hell!"""

You mean a HD ONLY town, you got everything else over there, surely they don't exist too.
mind you you could go there in STYLE a'la'Trump.

Went to church at 8, have to work at 12 ( I am at work)till 5. Riding Bike all Day. The weather is great and I am stuck in a Wall-Mart doing Taxes for Jackson Hewitt.That my friends is not fun. Will do more riding around 5.

Is it OK to ride on Easter?

Of Course! Nothing like a good pagan holiday, great weather and lots of roast rabbit to get you in the mood to get out there and ride.

Cheers,

Just got back from a nice Easter ride. Beautiful day about 80 degrees. Took A1A from Palm Beach to Pompano. The ocean was a beautiful blue and crystal clear. Only problem was all the traffic. I thought a ride early on Easter morning would be real quite. Turns out it was probably the busiest day of the year at the beach and for a Sunday cruise along the ocean. It was a great ride though.

Keep in mind, Jesus rode a Triumph, says so in the Bible!

"But thanks be to God, who always leads us in Triumphal procession in Christ" 2Cor 2:14

Just got back from a nice 3 hour ride, no traffic , mild weather(high 60's),the Easter ride was a great idea.
The added bonus is I didn't go to hell.

No, it is absolutely forbidden. In 2 Kings 2; 23-24 you see the following:

"And verily, saith the Lord, it shall be unfit and unclean for any Son of Man to bestride his Triumph on the day of Resurrection. For Thou shalt keep Holy that Day of Great Rejoicing in contemplation and familial merriment, not skiving off for the afternoon and popping into Ye local Boozing Hole. For verily I say unto Ye, woe unto all who offendeth the Lord; for His Righteous Anger shall smite them by the Bluing of Chrome, the Popping of Exhausts, the Misfiring of Engines, and the Slipping of Brakes."

Well, I think it's something along those lines

Siggy

Psalm 47:1
Shout unto God with the sound of Triumph.

Psalm 47:5
God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a Trumpet.

Heck yeah, couldn't convince Liz to ride to church, but we took a spin this afternoon. (did see one bike at church)

Erm.....

I planned a run out for my local club....

So I hope so!

And we had a good time too.

Just don't forsake the assembly.... Take you congregation with you. If they don't have bikes - they don't count. Since I am Jesus' brother, I know He'd ride a Triumph.
And He'd ride it safe!

Well I went out with the congregation and we rode for an hour or so and found a very handy Dunkin Donuts. We celebrated the lords day over a steaming cup of coffee and rode home. What a great day!!

I did a nice 75 mile ride today up into northern Westchester County, NY. A guy on a Suzuki 1000 V-Strom (hideous cruiser) rode with me. Winding roads, few stop signs or lights, and unbelievable scenery. Towards the end of the ride, we had lunch at a nice Italian restraunt in Scott's Corner, NY on Rt 37, just north of New Canaan, CT. After lunch, we were standing by our bikes parked in front of the place, and I was having a smoke before we got going. All of a sudden, my buddy says "uh-oh", and I look up, and see a cop walking over to us. He had driven by, seen our bikes, made a u-turn, parked, got out of his cop car, and walked over. He said he couldn't belive my bike, and he had to stop to look at it. I told him I was going to buy a Harley, but where I live, every "Guido", and his brother has one. Then he says "I see you're looking at my name tag". Of course, he had an Italian surname. I told him no offense intended officer, but you know what I mean, those guys with the gold chains. He reached under the collar of his shirt, and pulled out a gold chain. He laughed, and said "that's a f***ing beautiful motorcycle. Then, he got a call, and took off. My buddy looks at me and says " I can't believe what just happened". I said what are you talking about? He said "I saw that cop coming over, and I thought he was going to give us a hard time about where we were parked, or something". I said no, he just wanted to look at my bike. It happens all the time. Now, I will make my first attempt at posting pics. Charlie

Well I haven't figured out how to post pics yet, but I'm still trying.

Took the wife out to dinner today on the bike. The Mexican place we wanted to eat at was closed. No problem, went to another Mexican place in another town that was open. If we were in the car, it would have been a drag, but on the bike, it was, oh, well, lets ride over to another town and try there. It was a little chilly on the road, though. TR

CHRIST IS RISEN!!

And The Tomb is Empty! You are therefore free, and will live forever.
Will there be Triumphs in Heaven? I think so.

I got drizzunk and played 18 holes of golf. If my bike was finished, I would have ridden.

My own choice is never to ride on Sunday.

Hey Dwight

If you're resident Agnost then I'm the resident Athiest.
I only celebrate Xmas cos it's my Mums Birthday. It's an excuse for a party otherwise....and some pressies! And before someone starts I know that's hypocritical but so are most religions. And if you start on me I'll go into a corner and sulk. Or just go to work!

Last week I parked the silver bullet in the garage for a few months (shoulder surgery coming up and difficult to ride). Yesterday was so nice I was gonna git er out for one last short ride but Saturday I decided to go up into the attic and fall through the ceiling dislocating my right shoulder. Not even the one I'm gonna get fixed !
So there went my plans to ride on Easter.

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrpppppppppppppp !!!!!!

It is sacrilage to not ride. There is no better way to commune with ones maker than to become one with nature and creation by going for a nice leasurely ride in the country.

Any day is a riding day ...
