28 March 2010 — Monthly Meet and Ride

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

It’s the pre-Pesach meet & ride!  9AM on Sunday 28 March 2010 at the Factoria Starbucks.  No destination in mind yet (and keep in mind that a few of us will probably have to head home early enough to clean out the remainder of our chametz).  But before Pesach is always a good time to go dip into some pancakes, waffles, bagels, and other assorted goodies that we won’t get to enjoy over the week that follows. 

Wishing everyone a Chag Pesach Simeach and looking forward to seeing you on Sunday.

Comments from Purim Carnival 2010

Monday, March 1st, 2010

Bruce and Richard really led the way at the carnival, staffing the booth, taking pictures, and in general, giving everyone a great time.  Bruce sent these comments about the Purim Carnival … I thought I’d share them with everyone:

It was definitely fun. You guys should go out and check out the photos I got a couple of families on the bike, the record I think was 4 at the same time.

 Best 10:

  1. Best husband comment, “So,” looking at his wife, the answer was obvious and we all know what the question was.
  2. Best kid comment, “What do you do with these?”; Ok, sorry, guys, but the first thing that came to mind was, “Ride it.”  Doh…
  3. My favorite mom comment to kid, “No way your climbing on that until I clean you up.” At which point she pulls out a box of wipes and cleans the kid head to toe. Thanks mom, that lolly pop would really had made a mess of things.
  4. Best club comment,”Bruce take off the chaps, they’re not here to see you.” Ok, Ok, I get it, it really is all about the bikes.
  5. Proof Harleys are better. The kids wanted to sit on Richards bike, but mom told them to climb on mine for the photo.
  6. Most embarrassing, couple standing together, “Want your picture with him?” response from her, “No, I would rather have it with a biker.” Hey, don’t believe me, the evidence is on the site….
  7. Lesson learned, check your controls BEFORE you start the bike after something like that. Kids out of control will reset the controls on your bike faster then white on rice. Poor thing would not start when I first got on, and I think I may have blinded the poor person walking towards me…
  8. No matter how hard you try, some kids don’t smile, but the parents (especially the moms) always do when sitting on a motorcycle.
  9. No Richard you can not sell them their stuff back for a ticket and Ned thanks for the sales (big pimp’n).

    And Last …

  10. Best comment of the day, “You better enjoy that, because that is as close as your ever getting to one ot those!” can you hear the ego deflating….

By the way, does anyone know how to remove cotten candy after it has been melted on? Did not see a chunk on the cylinder head….
