| September ?, 2009 Ride to Vintage Motorcycle Exhibit OK folks, put this date on your calendar. Wait a minute, I don't have a date. It's not that important anyway. All I know is that the the first coolish Saturday between now and Sept. 19th I've got a ride planned to visit the "Wind in Your Hair - Vintage Motorcycles" exhibit in Louisville (Google this for details). In keeping with my "convoluted" ways of trying to get to Louisville, we will be going through Battletown, Laconia, and Fishtown. If we find Louisville, lunch will be at Mark's Feed Store BBQ (Bardstown Rd. store). I plan on coming back through...you know better than that...I don't have a plan. That's not all that important either. So, the "Wind in Your Hair & BBQ in Your Teeth Ride" will depart from Thorton's, Morgan & Burkhardt. Kickstands up at 8:00 AM, some up-coming Saturday. Stay tuned. Nature Dave |

January 1, 2010 Polar Bear Ride 10:00 AM It's that time of year that Polar Bears on Motorcycles are seen leaving Thorton's (Burkhardt & Morgan) and migrating through the countryside. They eventually, after a convoluted course, end up at their feeding grounds in the North Country (Haubstadt) communally referred to as the GarageMajal. This ravenous herd fears nothing but slick terrain to travel over, but fortunately the weather forecast looks to be in their favor for this New Year's migration. Polar Bears unite! 10:00 AM, Friday, Jan. 1st, Thorton's. If ice is in the forecast there will be a cancellation e-mail Friday Morning at 8:00 AM. Freeze, I mean, see you then. |
