Default Bikes, Blues, and Barbeque 2008 - with pics to prove it!!!

Pulled out Friday morning and made the trip to Fayetteville, Arkansas. It was an easy 1000 mile round trip. The rally was cool, saw some cool bikes, ate some good barbeque and got to ride through some great winding roads through the Ozarks.

The only bumps we hit were repairing my brother-in-laws rear brake linkage on his bike for about an hour on the way home, and my other buddy reached out to flag over an oncoming 18 Wheeler which was moving into our lane and the trucks rearview mirror swiped his hand. The mirror broke off the truck and it looks like my buddy has a broken bone or two in his hand. Could have been much worse. And the truck didn't stop.

Here are some pics from the weekend:

Packed and ready to go:

Trying on a Boss Hoss for size, I would love to ride one of these:
