On Tuesday April 30th we had our monthly dinner ride. This month we went to Longhorn Steakhouse. In attendance were: Bruce & Bonnie D., Rich & Debbie F., Bill & Antje C., Frank B., Mike & Anita S., Jim K., and a guy in a cowboy hat that I can’t make out in the picture. I apologize for not being able to see who it is and since I wasn’t there I just don’t know. IF anyone reads this and knows who it was please let me know.
After our monthly breakfast ride we rode over to Park Place Mall to watch the 23rd Annual MC Training Competition. IF you have never been to one of these you DO NOT know what you are missing. Some of the agility riding these officers provide are remarkable to say the least. While walking around the venue we run into some old and familiar faces of BKAZIX. There was Tony S., Tom B., Stan T. who was helping with the judging, and John C. one of our founding members. As you can see from the pictures we had officers from as far as San Diego to El Paso and north. Here are a bunch of pictures from the event:
On Saturday April 13th we had our monthly breakfast ride. This month we went to the “Happy Rooster Cafe” out on S. Sarnoff. What a great eclectic place. We had a lot of members show up for this ride. Those in attendance were: Terry A., his friend Steve E., John F., John J. H., Bill & Antje C., Mike S., Twan Van., Susan W. & Alan S., Bruce & Bonnie D., and yours truly. Bruce brought with him news that he decided, or was it Bonnie’s decision, but he now owns a NEW Tri-Glide. It seems they were at Harley and Bonnie decided to sit on the back seat and I guess it was love at first sight or was it sit. Either way congratulations on your new addition. Here are a few pictures from breakfast:
