I had a great time as well. Got to briefly meet vegashd and red scout who left Vegas at 4:30 that morning I believe to make the event.

Thudmeister was a kick and made a great tailgunner on our trip up the mountain.

Grumpy Irish Again can just plain ride. Us "younger dudes" kept him to a slower pace then he would have preferred but I enjoyed riding behind him watching him take the hairpins with his mini apes one handed more often than not.

Shooter Jennings concert was great. Got to meet and take a pic with our host, the owner of Big Bear Choppers who was very friendly and took a little time to chat with us right in the middle of this very large event.

Anyway here are some of my pics to compliment Thudmeister's:

Left to right: Thudmeister,Red Scout, Matt8643 seated, VegasHD seated towards the back, Grumpy Irish Again, Carmell RKC's wife Angela, Carmell RKC , white t-shirt dude is me and Bubba's standing on the far right.

Evidently the motorheads get an early start in this little guy's family:

Yes, it was fun. Finished my break-in before we started up the mountain. After I ate dinner in Peris and the traffic cleared, I was hauling butt home. Did not hit tripple digits but that Deuce is a quick one, even before my mods.
