Default 110th pics

Had a blast! Met new friends and hung out with old ones. Weather was close to perfect. If you have pics, post them up with a caption.

We started it off at Thursday bike night - the entire museum grounds was packed, but manageable. There was also lines of bikes all down 6th street.



A friend of ours does welded art. He had a booth set up. He does a lot of the stuff for the Museum.



Our bike is hiding behind this big wheeled monster. Note the difference in front wheel size!



There were people from all corners of the earth at the Museum. This colorful couple was from Mexico



The North Mississippi Allstars played at the Museum stage. I had never heard of them. They rocked it!

Started out Wednesday afternoon at Uke's H-D in Kenosha. This is a panoramic shot just before bikes took off for the parade down to Harbor Thunder on the Kenosha lakefront:

The Evolution (I think that is what it is called) bike parked at the H-D Museum on Thursday night...as you can imagine, it got lots of attention - especially from our foreign guests:

A small group of us did a ride on Friday up Lake Dr. We ultimately ended up at the Museum grounds again. Boy it was hot!



The next day we watched the parade. The orange 2014 SG was Willie G and his wife. He kept a very low profile, hanging back from the parade leaders.



We met Riteway (Tim)and Citytrucker(Gary)/Mel the wife at a great spot to watch the parade. You couldn't hope to meet nicer people than these folks (except the tall guy).

Nice pictures! The "train looking" bike was funny! I always wonder how people park on grass and not have their bike sink into the ground and fall over.

I have a little plastic kickstand circle thingie I put down. Mine is small enough and I keep it in the left lower. I got mine free from a bike event, but they can be bought at Harley.

Yeah I carry one of those plastic jiffy stand supports too. They usually hand them out as you are pulling into one of the grass lots at the museum. That's where I got mine. They were giving one with the Potawotami Casino logo on it to every rider that entered the grass parking lots on Thursday when I was there.

They handed out wood squares to everyone as they were pulling in.

Thanks for sharing the pictures. Was a GREAT party. The people of Milwaukee were great hosts. I will be back for the 115th.
