It WAS a great time! Only one bike down an d one ticket. At least two warnings, though (I was one). If you haven't done this trip in the past, you MUST try to do it next year. Usually mid August. This was my second trip. Even after the first trip, I had about 10 new friends even though I only knew one prior to the event. Great way to get some good riding in and shoot the sh!t about our bikes-perfect time to see the mods that over 20 Monster Riders have done.
