'97 Harley Fat Boy here. I have rode and enjoyed the street bikes; but I enjoy the easy cruising more.

ROT....I used to go every year. It has been about 3 years now that I have not been. As I get a little older, I kind of feel the crowd is a lot younger than I am and we have less and less in common. I am happy just riding by myself and stopping when and where I want to. Sometimes I ride with close friends. Riding and drinking is not what I do for fun...or having hangovers and riding. To many crazies on the road to not watch what you are doing 100% of the time. I hate to say it, but I guess I am growing up. I still like cars and bikes, loud motors and big horsepower. I am just a little more reserved now.

I can understand that. I like to party; but the idea of a weekend party with a bunch of people I don't know sounds more like an accident waiting to happen instead of a great time.

Exactly, thats why i skipped it this year. Instead of going to rot me and my riding buddies go country road carving while all the officers are stuck downtown! Cant ask for anything better

I'm selling my ninja 500 if you want to buy it. It has brand new tires, and only 6500 miles. It's burgundy and black.
