    Crikey!!

    That topped any VME meets at Teddy's Tav (in the old days, when it still happened there).
    There were hundreds and hundreds of bikes, covering several blocks and all the parking lots, and yeah, a few scooters. Gas grills on the sidewalks provided hotdogs and chips for donations, beer was available at several locations, including the small brewery a block from the 2Bit.

    The bikes ranged from vintage to new, the riders ranged from BMW riders with $1800 of high-zoot clothing to normal folks, and a small pack of full patch Hell's Angels.

    Quite the friggin party!
    Apes:
    I met the new owner of a low-mileage '04 Tuono, saw one Mille Factory, and a Shiver.

    Wondering: is it worth trying to get an aprilia rider's meet going, or does everyone truly not give a shit???

    Backfire moto again next Wed the 20th.
    I might be there, if I don't take a trip to Weiser, ID for the fiddle contest (first choice, great m/c roads, LOTS of my picking buddies, debauchery, etc...)
    Anybody up for tagging along?

    Seattle area FYI- found some cheap aprilia shirts

    I was slumming around at Ride Motorsports in Woodinville and grabbed a couple aprilia shirts off of the close-out rack.

    Gray short sleeve knit, small aprilia racing sew-ons on front and back and left sleeve-
    ONE XL left, a few Large (I'm 6', 200, fits great) and
    Several Large plain white t-shirts with the same patches front + rear.

    $10 and $5, respectively, thought of grabbing them all, but nah...
