Nostalgia at the Redfish Inn 2004 Flashback by Miserable George

This place has had many names down through the years,

and back in 2004, it was the Redfish Inn, and, a very popular watering hole on U.S.#1 in Cocoa, Fl, near the flea market. It seems that there was always something interesting going on…from spaghetti wrestling, to a mini-concert by Big Mike Griffin, and TV’s “good ol’ boy”…Mickey Jones.

The weather was as variable as the entertainment…beautiful for awhile, then, a whopper blowing in off the Space Center!! But, one thing you could always count on, was a banner crowd, to partake of the entertainment, the pretty girls, and the good food!!

The place still boasts all these things today, but, with a different name…”The Oyster Bar”…on U.S.#1, just north of Cocoa, Fl. Tell ‘em Old School Biker” sent ya…OK?

RODEO at the MOB 5/14/2016

I remember last year , at this event, it had to be run between rain showers…not so this past May 14th…weather was beautiful…just like a bunch of the ladies scootin’ around at the WMC Melbourne grounds on Lincoln Dr.

They were able to run every planned event: slo-race, plank ride, barrel roll, and of course, the wienie bite. Lots of tasty food, plenty to drink, live bands, AND, the presentation of award citations for many clubs and individuals present.

The crowd certainly welcomed the large sun canopies shadowing the picnic tables, and of course, the pleasant air conditioned clubhouse, and a very pretty bar-maid…oh yeah…!!!

OSB would like to thank Robin Bailey for her assistance with the camera work. Come to think of it…I believe she won a prize in the bike judging!!! All in all…a FUN day.

Thanks to all the South Brevard Brothers…the Melbourne Mob…for making us feel welcome…stay tuned…there’ll be more…

Vintage 70’s Moto-Guzzi Club Rally by Miserable George

When I lived up north, I belonged to Keystone Motorcycle Club, in Emmaus, Pa., and from 1972-1980 we held a Moto-Guzzi Owner’s Rally on our grounds. It started out a bit slow, but as the years passed, it grew to a pretty good size…

riders came in from all over the country…it got BIG.

But, as usually happens, copy-cat rallies sprang up all over the USA, and eventually, we gave it up…too many rallies…not enough riders, as it were. Anyway, it was fun, while it lasted. We had a full kitchen, went on local tours, had biker games, lots of room for camping, live entertainment…all the makings of a fun week-end.

We even rigged up an outside shower, with a gravity fed hot water tank, and our own make-shift water heater…BUT, it worked…! I’m hoping someone who was there back then, will stumble across this article, and maybe realize some happy memories. I know, WE had a blast sponsoring the event…!  ValGal was just a kid back then, but even SHE was in on it…! We’re hoping to get some feedback on this one…Hey, ride safe…

A BENEFIT FOR ANDY ROSS at American Legion Post 359 by Miserable George

   Riders gathered from miles around to help a fellow biker,

the central meeting point being Legion Post 359, on US#1 in Port St. John. Big Daddy’s Rock Band was wailing away, as only HE can. There was some fabulous food available, and I’m happy to say, the riders cleaned it all up…every morsel…!!!

Lots of refreshment at the Tiki Bar out back too, as well as dancing to the strains of Big Daddy’s Band. Later, an auction, and 50/50…half of which was donated back for the cause!! I tell ya…I had a ball, and, I don’t even drink!!! Made a few new friends too…really!!! Always a fabulous time at 359…the “Biker’s Legion”…
