2015 Midwest Motorized Bike Ride

[ckangaroo70]

What is the scarecrow run? Halloween?

WHAT?!!!! Its only the greatest all time bestest and most fantastical motorized bicycle cruise this side of Mississippi! Ok...maybe not this side of the Mississippi, but definitely this side of the Spoon River.

It is so rural here that the only semblance to a human being you might see on this cruise is a scarecrow standing guard in a field.

I know but is it in the fall?

No. Scarecrows work all year. They do go on vacation around December but they have to alternate days.

The next ride is scheduled for mid June of 2016.

Oh! The first annual was the scarecrow run! Now I'm catching on. I was kinda hoping something was end of summer nearby etc.

Thanks, Kirk. Your bike is so unique it deserved some special effects. It lended itself well to some antiquing. Glad you liked it. I certainly enjoyed riding next to it.

Ray, I checked my tank when I got home. Still had over a half tank of fuel left. I think I could do a 75 mile run; no problem. That is unless I get into more WOT racing with Jordan again. But what would be the use?

And I ran out! Seems like mine isn't a gas saver!

Tom just watched your video and it really showed I could practice at being easy on the throttle!

But what fun is that? If ya got it, ya gotta use it occasionally.

Ha next time around I'll let ya ride her and you can tell me how it feels! Got a real nice cruising speed though I will say that much.

Thanks for sharing the videos... looks like you guys had a lot of fun. And as with all such enterprises, it is important that no one got hurt. No one got arrested. No bike blew up. Next year will be even better!

It was a blast. We had a couple minor problems but like you said nothing major!
