4th of July Excitement
Posted: Wed Jul 07, 2010 3:15 pm
Another motorcycle report, but it's all I've got for a while....Bf got tickets for the Red, White and Cruise run to Fontana Auto Club Speedway. They included group ride to the Speedway, 3 laps around the track, preferred parking, dinner, another lap around the track, and centerfield parking for the fireworks. What a deal!
200 bikes for the run from the Corona Harley dealership escorted by 2 Huey helicopters and motorcycle cops:
First group of bikes making their laps at close to 100 mph:
Our turn:
Cool car at the veterans car show:
My new car:
The traveling wall was there along with a very moving ceremony that brought home what the 4th is really all about:
Another lap around the track with the people in the stands cheering us on and a standing ovation for us and then parked in front of the winners circle:
Fireworks pictures didn't come out so good:
It was such a kick to ride a track where so many great drivers have raced. You have no idea how steep the track is until you try to walk up it, and that was on the straight-away, but you don't notice it when you're riding it. Another trip where the wussy girlie decided to ride passenger instead of riding her own! LOL! Another moving ceremony before the fire works and actually said a prayer for our forces on the firing line. So good to hear that in this day and age. Such a fun night and so glad we went. Bf is still jazzed about riding on the track!
