Today we escorted the Travelling Vietnam Memorial Wall from biketown harley davidson in youngstown oh , to the Wintersville air park in Wintersville oh (approx 80 miles or so). It was a very moving experience , all along our route people were cheering and waving us on -- from elderly vets holding signs to little kids -- whole families sat out to watch us pass. The local news says we had over 2000 bikes -- i dont know exactly how many we had, but as we came down to highway , it was bikes as far as u could see in front, and as far back in my mirror. To be part of something like that is something i will never forget -- and hope to be part of again -- It is truly hard to explain how it felt to be part of it -- and to see so many people take an interest -- it was an awesome experience. |

That is cool, you should come down and ride the trail of tears. I Don't have a bike but I go out and cheer them on some times. I see all kinds of home made trikes and have thought about something like that. Thanks for all you do |

most of the time anymore you can buy a harley thats a year or two old for less than or equal to the price of other bikes ( by the time you read between the lines on their finance programs -- and if you get a used harley through a dealership , you can still buy a wheel to wheel warranty with it ) regardless of what you ride, we ride for all kinds of good causes -- your more than welcome to ride with us anytime |
