A bunch of us took a ride today to SW Wisconsin to the Slimey Crud Run. This run has been held twice a year for decades, it starts at one small town, and ends up at another about 50 miles away. No rules, no routes, just show up at one or the other and enjoy the bikes.
For those that do not know rural Wisconsin, a small town means= 2 bars and a church, or a feed mill and two bars and a church, OR, a prosperous community might have a town shed for the snow plows, along with two bars and TWO churches. As can be seen in a couple of the pictures, the bikes go on for about a half mile or more in either direction from the two bars (this town has a shooting club also).
We had 3 Valkyrie trikes (Don and Barb had 2), Barbs cousin Dave and his wife, 4 - Valkyrie bikes (Black dog, myself, one eyed Jack, and Chrome Dome) that are affiliated with the VRCC, along with another 5 or 6 that we saw walking around.
The first one was really neat, the guy made the whole bike using a GL1500 rear drive, 1200 front forks, and a 1938 Ford flathead V8, sounded as neat as it looked. There were hundreds and hundreds of antique bikes, both originals and restored, along with thousands of newer bikes.
