Default Our first poker run!
Went to my first poker run with my 12 year old son, we had a great time. Really cool to see all the bikes going down the road as far as the eye can see. Folks were putting chairs out in their front yards to sit and wave at us as we went by.

"Jezebel" handled the 220 mile ride with no problems at all. If anything, I had a bit of trouble holding her back so I didn't pass too many folks...

I just checked out your pics, Jezebel looks pretty good for her age.

I won a door prize, a Georgia Bulldogs cover for the gas grill bottle. Dustin didn't win anything , but he did have the better poker hand going.

Thanks, boe1971200. She's gonna look better soon. I have patched up the FLH rear fender and have the first 2 coats of paint on it, mounting an LED tombstone tail light and a Mustang FLH touring seat.

First ... congrats on the ride ... wait 'til your son is old enough to ride his own bike ... those are the really fun rides.

Not to hijack the thread ... but manji99 ... if you like Halo stuff then you'll love what's for sale on Ebay ...

A Master Chief's outfit and the last bid is now just under $7000!
