BIKE DAY AT POST 359 by Miserable George

     The weather being what it was on April 1, 2023…Bike-Day at Legion post 359, really drew in a CROWD…!!! We ran into quite a few old friends. The live band, Radar Red had the crowd jumpin’, and as usual, a long line at the food table…today a special….fresh corn on the cob. THAT really went over BIG…!!! Today must have been “Dog Day”….lots of pups in attendance with their masters and mistresses….more than I had seen before. Of course, THAT had ValGal all excited…she LOVES doggies…!!

Truly, another fun day at 359…the weather was PERFECT, with a cool breeze wafting through the area all day long Folks, thank a Vet today, and GOD BLESS AMERICA…!!!

WILLIE’S TROPICAL TATTOO CHOPPER SHOW BIKE WEEK 2023 by Miserable George

     ValGal and myself drifted into Willie’s right on time this year, and because it being Bike Week…the place was MOBBED. We were lucky to get a parking spot in the big Publix lot. As always, the bikes were jammed in tight in the front lot, along with a host of gorgeous babes. We did our best to get decent photos of BOTH!!! In the rear, Big Rick and the Troublemakers were blasting away to a nice large sitting audience…always liked that band…!!! I was getting a bit hungry, but I simply COULD NOT find a taco stand…anywhere!!! I didn’t make my annual trek up the hill this year…gettin’ too old for THAT. Always got a hot dog from the ladies at the Old Folks Home up at the top. I finally sat down under a big shade tree near-by, and almost dozed off….Val woke me up with a phone call…!!! Time for the bike judging. My thanks to Lulu from Thunder Roads Magazine for giving up her seat to me so I could get some decent pics of the bike winners…Lulu…yer a DOLL!!! After the judging, it was off to Pappas restaurant for a fabulous meal (as always), and then…HOME!!!

Hey, thank a VET today, ride safe, and respect your ELDERS!!!!’

CABBAGE PATCH…BIKE WEEK-2023 by Miserable George

        ValGal and I rolled into the Cabbage Patch on Wed. March 8 , and as usual…we were a bit early…OR…was the Cabbage Patch a little late. Either way, we had time to kill before the wrestling started. I did my usual walk-around inside the big field and had the pleasure of meeting some really nice folks from all over the country. They finally brought the cabbage shredder in, got THAT done, and rounded up a bunch of lady “wrestlers”….the show began!!!!!!!I never did get the winners’  name. Old friend, MC Radical Randy gave me a very nice introduction…thanks Randy…!!! We gave the grounds the “once-over”, and by now, this OLD MAN was ready to hit the road for home. It was a fun filled day for sure!!! Had to save energy for Willie’s the following day!!!!

Hey, thank a VET today…ride carefully…

POST 359…BIKE DAY by Miserable George

I sort of figured that the Bike Day crowd at 359 would be smaller because of the opening of Bike Week in Daytona. BUT, I was wrong…! The 359 crowd was right up there as usual. The live band, “Loaded Dice” presented an out-standing performance all afternoon, and the “chief cook” presented a fabulous meal, complete with corn on the cob!!!  Now, you all know that I no longer drink, however in the “old days” I DID spend some time at various bars…seen a lot of bar tenders, but folks, little Shelly behind the big bar has got them ALL beat…! That little lady is a WHIZZZZ…!!! The weather was fantastic all day long, which certainly helped to produce the crowd that attended..!!! The 50/50 winner donated $100 back to the organization…good man…!!! It was at that point that this old boy decided to head for home. ValGal was in Daytona doing her thing, so she missed a good gathering at 359.

Hey, remember our troops and all our departed friends.
