Today we were in the very first Vince Lombardi Cancer Ride, from Milwaukee, to Green Bay. They said we made history for the House Of Harley, in Milwaukee. We were pledged for $125.
There was over 300 beautiful, rumbling Harley's in the run. We had a police escort onto the freeway in Milwaukee, which was a sight to see hundreds of cagers stopped on 894 just to let all us bikers on. Then all 300 bikes rode staggered formation for 135 miles up to Lambeau stadium in Green Bay. We had another police escort off the freeway in G.B. to the stadium. Our small group of friends (gang)which was 6 bikes, were in the first 1/3 of the huge pack. Our gang is called "The Road Show" So I guess I'm a gang banger.. It was so cool lookin in the mirror and see about 2 miles of Harley's behind us. They had a pancake breakfast at House of Harley and then at Lambeau field they had music, brats, beer and more beer. After I had a good buzz on we stopped over at Slydogs house so I could pee in her bushes in the back yard, and looked at a bunch of rocks she collected on her trip out west. We couldn't stay long at Slydogs as I made Takila buy me a steak dinner back in Milwaukee with her earnings from last weeks craft show. Small price for her to pay to be allowed to ride with the Road show gang, in a historical event....
We put on 365 miles today total, and it was a blast!
Anyway here are some of the pic of today.
Here is Takila talking to a few of the gang at House of Harley.

Some of the bikes at H.O.H. lined up, ready to go.

And when its for a good cause the envy becomes jealousy. More power to you man. Enjoy life while its there to enjoy. Keep um' rollin. Pete

great photos! i lived in Daytona Beach for a while, once a year (bike week) the place would be jammed with great bikes and bikers from all over the country. the sound of that many bikes can be deafening. cool, but deafening.

OH man!!!! I love it!!! Yea I tried to convince the wife that I need a Bike (that middle age thing going on right now) she just laughs at me- I looked at getting another dirt bike (just for giggles) but I was never a good rider and this body of mine just won't put up with many crashes- Oh well I still have my tumblers!

Most of the dealers have 1 in the showroom.
