Though my Uly X is still in the shop waiting for a new frame (hit a deer, got a hairline crack in the gas tank/frame), I find myself at home (in the Washington, DC area) this Memorial Day weekend - not traveling for once. We DC-area locals try to escape the tourists around certain holidays. I also have a Hog, so I think I'll head to Battley Cycles and join the mob.
![harley](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/348043/363267.jpg) I wish it was my fan making all the noise instead of the Vance and Hines, but I hear it's just an amazing experience to ride in Rolling Thunder. Anyone else going? Anyone have any tips? Should I arrive at the dealer at 7am, like they say (to get the free doughnuts), or should I sleep in and show up at 8:30am, just in time for the departure? Should I just ride to the Pentagon and then just head out on my own, or should I stay with the huge procession down to The Wall? Is it worth it? A coworker of mine said the ride from the Pentagon to The Wall was tedious and slow. Anyone have any good photos from years past? |

>> Anyone have any good photos from years past? Haven't done it in years. Last time I think was still scanning film.

Planning to meet my Brother & his friends near Patriot H-D, on my Whisper Jet, for the ride in. |

Anyone else go? It was an amazing experience that I plan on posting more on later. Until then... http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/363207.html?1211951301 Anyone else go? Any thoughts or good stories? It's funny, Turnagain - those riders in your picture are going the opposite way that the parade now runs. (Message edited by hooper on May 28, 2008) |
