I saw that bike there. I just shook my head at those speakers in the rear.

KING'S RIDE, we got there Wed and rode to Oatman on Thurs. Checked out some of the venders once we got back in Laughlin.

I did have to do some work that Saturday afternoon when some mental midgit decided to break a bunch of wall lamp covers in the hotel cause he got kicked outta the pool for being drunk and beligerant.
YEAH! All in all I had a great time,too!
What is it with some people! They're upset with the price of something or something bad happens and the give the employee who's busting their *** to try and make their stay as nice as possible major grief!
Next year if the boss says I gotta work The Run, I'm playing the F.M.L.A. card and say I can't because of......(insert reason here!)
Engineering/Maintance? yeah we had rocket scientist here in Mesquite too

I am sorry to inform all of you that those are not speakers, those are the thinly disguised flux capacitor's used by the CIA, that were involved in killing Bin ladin. he was there in disguise, (he's really a white guy!) doing last minute testing on exploding things with invisible amplified brain farts!! that is why it looks that way!!

Reno run pretty much the same only alot less cops.

Did the Reno run the first couple years they moved it up there from Carson City after that flea bag town got a big head and jacked the prices on everything up 1000% for the Camel Races weekend jumping on the rape the Harely crew bandwagon . Last time I went Reno was fun if you got off the beaten path and away from all the knick knack idiot's . I decided to toss the towel in on the ride home after dodging cops for 250 miles and seeing so many weekend warriors with trailers full of bikes who still couldn't stay in their own lane . Those types have taken all the joy out of this sport and the runs for me .

Then it looked like a police state. I guess the cops were trying to intimidate them.

I heard it was really lame. Gas was over priced and rooms were over two bills a night. Bullhead City decided to use it for a budget suppliment. If the local governace cannot show a little class then events like this are dead.
