BBBQ 2010 and the ride home.

Bikes,Blues and BBQ 2010. I'm not going to say much about it. It's always a lot of fun. I'll try not to miss it even if I have to drive a car to get there. I haven't done any editing to the pictures. I just posted them like they were.
Shanna and I arrived at the event at around 2 pm and it was jam packed, but we were lucky and got a parking place on Dickson St. near the Church on the hill.

This is the way it looked when we arrived.












Gotta have that cigarette in the mouth for coolness.

Shanna wearing a shirt that Charlles picked up for me while in Montreal back in 1980 on one of his rides.








I guess this guys dining is cheaper, she probably doesn't eat much.






I think my Daughter was having a good time.

















I took this picture just after she said " I got my looks from you Dad".







For Sale.







This is probably my favorite of the flashy choppers. I'm really more into the old style, not the pretty bikes.











I picked up that same shirt here about 5 years for free from Chevy. You were looking at the shirt right?

The guy wearing the Fox hat is the one that owned the chopper Shanna got her picture taken on. He was letting anyone get their picture taken on it.



Shanna sitting on a chopper.

Notice the arrow pointing down. Underground here is Hugo's. Shanna and I walked up the hill to the town square and ate here for lunch. I've eaten here several times, great hamburgers.









Helmets are required for anyone under 21 in Arkansas but the law and lots of other laws were not being enforced during BBBQ.







The Christian Motorcycly Association gives out a lot a free water, coffee and hot chocolate here at the Church. This is where the rock wall is. It's the best spot on Dickson St. for watching the bikes and people.



Looks like a head of cotton candy.
















Get a clue lady....if you'll notice he is wearing full protective gear....and your on the back.

Can you tell she liked getting her picture taken? Doe's she look like a certain actress to you?



Nice hair.



The local Fuzz.

Banditos from Ok. and Tx. plus allies Ok. Riders were in attendance.



This has got to be one of the longest choppers I've ever seen.

Shanna and I got back home around 1 am. We were wore out. Sunday morning I was invited over to David and Rhonda's house, Bryans' parents. I ate some lunch there and then hit the road back to Arkansas at 2:30 pm. I took Hwy 69 South out of Muskogee then took hwy 64 West to home. I had decided I could make it on the old road before dark.

Arkansas State line on Hwy. 64.

Paris.

Above is a Church at Paris that has a kind of medieval look to it.
Below is an old rock building East of Altus.







I got back home just after 7 pm, it had started getting cold, really cold for me around 6:30. By the time I pulled into the yard I was shaking I was so cold. I guess I'm just not a cold weather rider. Maybe before next year I'll have a heated vest and gloves, that should do the trick.
