Default Motored Bike Awareness rally 2009

We left from Antlers, Ok. Rode 67 Miles torth through the mountains. the plan was to camp, then eat breakfast and return home on th MB's but nature took course. All in all besides the rain on sunday mornig it was alot of fun. There were 6 bikes total, 5 being ridin and one spare just in case. Guess who had to use the spare! my bike was running good all day and still runs great but I broke the brake arm on my coster brake. So I got to ride the backup bike. I have video I will try to upload it soon.

thats one of the many finds that you see while traveling on these things. It was on a ladies front porch she took $10 for it. I always wanted one.

Meh - I wish there were a few more of us around here - such get-togethers must be such a blast!

Although I do wonder if it would raise the hackles of our local and slightly rabid po-lice o_O

*shrug* no matter, it'd still be awesome - good job guys

Awesome. I am so upset I wasn't able to make it. Looking forward to the next one. I might even have a new bike by then.

Great Vid JCC. Looked like a great time was had.

How did you toco your rear wheel and shear your brake arm? Hope it didn't drop you.

The wheel is fine. it just broke the arm off. I had to bent and massage it a bit with a grinder to get it to clear the sprocket and bolts. I was full out and decided I needed to slow a bit and the pedals flipped out, which I knew meant one of two things, the brake arm either came loose or broke. and it had broke. O well its fixed again now it didnt go down wobble or anything just used the good ol feet to stop. We were in full race dress though so if had went down it wouldn't have been too bad. I had a helmet and my racing armor on.
