SAINTS MC Memorial Service by Miserable George

    Today, October 29, 2016, was the day the Saints MC chose to honor and remember their fallen Brothers.

A column left the Cocoa clubhouse at 12:30 PM, and wound its way over SR 405 to SR 3, (A1A), and south passing the houses of several deceased Brothers, and on down south to the Pineda area where a Brothers’ ashes were scattered, and on back to the clubhouse for a very touching memorial service.

There was also some tasty food, served amid the live music of the Radio Flyerz Band. A very worthwhile way to spend the day, for sure! I met several Brothers whom I hadn’t seen for quite a spell…that’s always nice. Nice weather…good friends…a perfect combination for a nice relaxing fall afternoon. Thanks guys and ladies…

Old Guys and Bikes RULE!! by Miserable George

    This is something a bit different.

It was the “old guys” who started this whole biking thing…many years ago. It was different then…WAY different.

OSB would like to pay homage to these men and a few of their machines. They may not be as desirable to look at, but if it were not for them….there would be NO biker babes…think about THAT!!!

Yes, there are several RIP’s in this display…GOD bless them all…several of them were my close friends…

Roscoe’s Chili Challenge #29 by ValGal and Miserable George

It’s no big secret about some logistical changes that had to be made at the big Chili Challenge this year. Camping areas were changed, entrances and exits were switched, the event was cut by one day…! As word got out BEFORE the event, I believe it scared a few people away! Well,

I’m here to tell you all, the Chili Challenge was a huge success,

despite a few minor changes. Additional  camping ground was purchased, which was more than enough to accommodate everyone, and despite shortening the party by one day…you STILL got your money’s  worth.

My friend, Jay Mollica rode out with me…I of course, took my truck…thanks to Jay for the company. Jay, by the way, is a PRIMO sax player, as I’m sure most of you know!!

We were invited out on Thursday, a day before opening…got a good camp site, met a lot of new people, shot almost 1000 photos, squeezed a few chicks, ate good at Heavenly Hotdogs…(Thanks John & Andrea!!), and generally had a blast.

Weather was good till Saturday evening, when the cold front moved in, and we got spritzed a bit!! Good chili, good events, good people, I think the photos can tell the story a lot better than I can.

Our BIG THANKS to Roscoe and his terrific staff for a

job well done…hope to get there again in 2015!!!

Steel City (Freemansburg) HIllclimb & Bike Show by Miserable George

Back about 1937, a bunch of biker guys started what is now Freemansburg HIll Climb and Bike Show.

We always just called it “the Hillclimb”…! Bushkill Valley MC started running it around 1951 at its present location across from the RR tracks at 2248 Riverside Dr., Bethlehem, Pa. It’s the old “back road to Easton”, as we called it.

My photo equipment was kinda limited in those days, but I did the best I could…no digital, of course!! I guess, it was more of a big beer and babe party in those days, and every June and September, we really looked forward to it…the “climb” and the after parties too!!

Google up “Freemansburg Hillclimb and Bike Show”…very interesting site. Wish we could still make it up there…
