Let me just say this , Yes a crap load of work . Worth every minute of it HELL Yes! Like anything there are lessons learned but to be honest it could not have gone any better. If you missed it , that sucks but there will be another . It wont be late July or early August - crap it was hot. It could not have been a better day, new bros gained , great ride , amazing bands, cold beer. I want to say thanks for all the help in putting this thing on and if you made your way out , I could not be more thankful .
Pictures are coming in and will be in phases as I am getting them from multiple sources . If you have some you what to send me , that would be cool . Send them to buellfusa@yahoo.com . All pics will be posted http://goingnowherefaststl.blogspot.com/
Read the original post for details we have updated it often . But a basic overview is below
We will stop 3 to 4 times for gas so that means if you can get 60 miles per tank you are cool . If you cant well .... The total ride is about 200 Miles and it is amazing . You will need to bring money to cross one ferry (4.00) have some cash with you. We leave Bare Knuckle Choppers at 10:30 sharp come a bit early and come with a full tank . You can fill up across from the shop. The bands are going to be amazing and there are two of them. The cost is $20.00 to cover the 2 bands , PA system , gas for the chase vehicle , porta potty and trailer rental. Not looking to make any money just cover cost and Luke, Josh , Paul and I will be lucky if we cover cost. . There will be a sign up sheet when you pay and wristbands given . We will use this list of names to give free stuff away from the various supporters that gave us swag. Camping is primitive , so it is what it is. Its going to be a great freakin time- hold on to your socks
Yes - this shit is still going down. We have the route mapped out and you can find it here -> http://alturl.com/hdzru This route includes 2 ferries - the first one is $4/bike - the second one is free Other than that, this ride should be rad.
There's only a few of us setting this whole thing up and some of the details are killing cashflow - so we've had to change it to BYOB, but a chase van with trailer, bathroom facilities, and a couple of awesome bands should be in order.
