Sorry no post yesterday or today, my internet service was out till this PM, and I honestly don't feel like posting pictures tonight.
I will note here that I don't go to Weirs Beach where the action, drunks, and Cops are, this is just what I see Down Town and at the Harley Davidson Road tour.
I walked a line of bikes yesterday that went from the river to the Post Office, (little over a mile ) they were side by side all the way up the street, 7 were not Harley's.
I'll get more pics up tomorrow, it's the last day as well as Fathers day.

Weirs Beach?  Like where they wear skimpy bathing suits?   Maybe you should risk yourself for the Photo Op?
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

Well, this years Bike week is over.
Don't ask me who won the Loudon Classic, I have no clue  ;D
I will be the first to admit that, as an action News photographer I am a heck of a Machinist   ;D

With caveat I present the wrap up;
This is the line of Bikes I was talking about in my last post



The line started about 30 feet behind me, and the large building with the Cupola is about the 2/3's mark.

While there were only 7 bikes in that whole line that were not Harley's, they were not ALL manly man type bikes.



There were also a few cars, I've been trying for years to get a photo of the Stanley Steamer a local guy drives.



Wreckers, (volume pricing available )   ;D



More Trikes





Side cars, (Got a close up for any who might be interested )





And Bikes,









The "Art Deco" lines of this one, (learned that from Antiques Roadshow   ;D  ) caught my eye, not quite "Steam punk", but close   ;D



For classics there was this,



This picture was taken several years ago, but since he passed me last night I feel I can put it in this post.



and of course cuties   ;D



Until next year, Happy Fathers Day and be safe !

That "Art Deco" one was the newest Victory model.  Kinda weird looking but I'm sure quite a comfy ride for the "bagger" guys.

Me, I prefered mine simple, lacking chrome and rideable.  I have a spare left nut I'd trade for either one of those Indian Chiefs... ;D

Thanks for the report Tom.  I surely do miss my riding days.
