Re: Chicago Monthly Ride ~~ NEW PICS 5-22 ~~

It's a shame we have to live soooo far from you guys. We would have loved to join in. Maybe the wife and I will have the pleasure of cruising w/the Indiana rodders at a future Chicago cruise...

Re: Chicago Monthly Ride ~~ NEW PICS 5-22 ~~

Mucho kudos and Thank you to Markm for hosting the May ride! That's a Nice hood for the ride round the lake.....darn rain. Mrs oldgreaser and John enjoyed it all, Man, it was a long Day. Compliment to Chef Markm on his BBQ Chicken, MMMmmm ! I got some really nice stuff too. Chrome fork, nice wide rear fender, brakes, (already in use) some short chrome fenders,

As you can see, Johnny thought my new fenders needed to go on his balance bike. Oh yea, That Indiana Blackout is a kick to ride, if ever offered the oppurtunity to ride it, I highly recommend taking Mark up on it. I took Gary's Street Skinny Typhoon for a ride too. I don't know what these guys were thinking ! That foot brake will stop you on a dime, and the Cool Guy shifter is smooth as glass. Even wheelied the purple muscle bike without injury to myself. Thanks again Mark for your hospitality and generousity. Hope to see all soon at a ride this summer.
