This rally hit town about last Tuesday or Wednesday and terminates Sunday or there abouts.
News reporter, on site one, just reported that there is 9,000 motorcycles in town and close to 70,000 people in attendance.
Good Lordy, that means there is over 7 people per bike.... Wow, I'm going to have to go downtown to see this... NOT.........

Talked to a buddy last night that was up there. They were getting ready for the Light Parade and judging. He has over 2000 LEDs on his bike, static tho. The other guy has $20K in computerized, motion LEDs on his bike and trailer. Flashes in time with the computerized music, does "waves", etc. to the music. Ya can't hide money.

Run, run,....hide the women and children! Lock the doors, bolt the windows!
They are running rampant,...call out the civil defense, the police, the military.
These "types" give all of us a bad name.

Sounds like a bunch of “harley” riders the way they buy into all that image thing!! I’ve got 174 red LED’s on my cycle, none of ‘em flash, or dance to any music, I thought that would be too gouty. I’ve got a friend that’s got over 200 LED’s on his gold wing, I’m sure he’s at the party also!! here's his bike;

My pleasure Lyn-Del. You and Wizard stop by anytime on your travels through. Safe winds on all of your trip. I forgot to warn you about the winds in South Dakota, nothing to block them from the Canadian border South..........
