Ooops !
Just got home from the ride to Pot Huron MI . 30 bikes ,give er take .
Good weather and good clean riding. Sandy from Fowlerville and his wife
were on two SANITARY Eldos . His was a '74 Disc brake and his wife's is
a '74 4LS Amal model. I think the other lady in his group was his sister
in law on a gorgeous red Jackel . You are a lucky guy Sandy ! Bill and
his wife ,Donna rode across the state from Grand Rapids on thier 100,000
+ mile Cal III with a trailer normaly seen behind Silverados !!! They
travel in COMFORT ! The sevice manager from Detroit BMW had an excllent
R90 combo and TWO very nice passengers to boot. Jeff of course riding
the "peoples choice " from last years Battle of The Brits show (Italian
division) , a V-7 Sport look-a-like 850 he put together. Too many more
to mention , but a memoral day for all and a real good turn out for a
first running of the event . Of course the food and drinks prepared by
Tom's sister and mothet at the Bowes Ponderosa were very welcome at the
end of the ride . Well ,looking forward to hooking up with Tom ,Sam
,Bill , Donna ,Todd and many more in a couple weeks . Heading up to
Traverse City. All those loopers ran flawlessly OF COURSE !
THANK YOU TOM !
