Last Sunday we hopped on the S40 and headed out "double up" to ride the April Fool's Poker Run put on by the Pikes Peak Laides of Harley. It was a chilly but sunny day and we were really looking forward to being out with other rides on our first Poker Run in 7 YEARS! We thought it would be a local area "bar to bar" type run but it wasn't we headed out of the Springs via 83 to Franktown, then over to Sedaila back on 105 to Monument and ended at BJ's Brew House on north Nevada Ave. A total of 131 miles, we had sun, a bit of rain and even a light SNOW shower and as usual our Poker Hands sucked badly, LOL! ;)
Had great pizza called the "Sweet Pig", (ham and pineapple) and enjoyed being back with a group of riders/bikers. Since we don't belong to a 1%'er MC or even a 2 piece patched, "support" MC, we call ourselves, "RIDERS", not bikers as were not hardcore and don't feel we could ever earn the "title" of "BIKER". Still we love sharin the "ROAD", with the real bikers and everyone was very nice to us and our smallish machine! :)
As usual, I forgot the camera, DUH, oh well next time, I'll make sure Jo has it so it so we can get a couple of photos to spice up the Blog! Take care, Ride Safe, have FUN!
B.J. and Jo :)
