Went to a ride in bike show yesterday with a couple of my Harley riding buddies . It was sponsored by the Road Dawgs MC.,and benefited MDA. there was also bikini bike washing , a burnout contest, a loudness contest, measured with a decible meter. A guy with a Vulcan won the burn out contest, he popped his tire in 4th gear. A custom Harley won the loudness contest at 124 dec.,followed by a Victory at 118. I didn't enter my bike but officers of the clubs present were walking around judging bikes for the bike show, just as we were getting ready to leave, a guy came around asking who owned certain bikes, a full on custom hardtail springer with a 113" s@s motor, a 1965 Harley dresser and "the" Triumph, we were asked to pull our bikes out to be further judged, I won 2nd place to the $40,ooo custom, I won a $50 gift certificate from a local custom mc shop and a support your local road dawgs T-shirt, the winner won a gift certificate and a 3 ft. trophy. I dont know how he'd get the trophy home so I'd rather have the T. After I won people started asking the usual ?, like how much, when i told them its comparsble to an 883 in price they couldn't believe it. I guess I will have to start entering some of these shows just to see what i can win. The guy who won the burnout contest won $200 for tire at a local shop and the loudness winner won a stay for 2 in Montreal. And the bikini bike wash,I FORGOT MY CAMERA
