My Last Day Of Biketoberfest

I've been out of the loop since Sunday, brought down hard by a bug going around and it's been no fun.

Today is the first day I've been back on the Rain since Saturday morning and I've got more photos and one more video to share with you.

Saturday morning we rode to The Boothill North in Ormond Beach on US 1. It's basically across the highway from the Iron Horse. (The parking lot at the Iron Horse was full)

Had a quick $2.00 hot dog and $3.00 fries and made our way over to the Iron Horse which was packed. No where to lean (in the shade that is) let alone sit compared to the Saturday before.

The reason I made mention of the price of my "meal" is that there were a lot of folks complaining about the prices of food. Heck Friday night I had "chicken on a stick" for $7.00, I'm not talking a whole chicken, I mean 3 big nugget type pieces of chicken. Just depends on where you go to eat. My fries were a bit high, but I ate more Sunday for less then I did Friday.

We almost made it through Biketoberfest without a fatality too, almost. One fatality was recorded this year, as opposed to 5 (I believe) last year.

Welcome once again to the World Famous Iron Horse Saloon:

Yep, you're reading that banner right...

Heard it wasn't a bad show.

It was billed as Bret's Back From Iraq show and the proceeds helped pay for his tour over there to entertain the troops.

I thought you might want to take a ride with us on the shovelhead. Let you get a real feel for what Biketoberfest is like. Come join us, won't you?
