International Motorcycle Show 2010

Jason brings parfait treats for the table.

I get stuck with the last coupon which is for a chicken burrito that no one has ever tried. Since I’m always up for new things, I get to enjoy a tasty medley of peppers, chicken, and egg in my breakfast.  I show off my free sample.  Good stuff!

Chad and Mark EAT MOR CHIKIN.

 

The main way in the International Motorcycle Show in Greenville, SC is up a bunch of stairs so Mark picks up my knee walker and off I go on my slow and long journey up.

The Doctor.  Awesome.

Chrisanne and Jeff

Our riff raff

Because I think a new one won’t throw me…

Yeah, look at those color matched Givi bags.

Chad makes a return trip because I forget my awesome business cards as if I’ve really got business going on.

 

Flo is looking mighty thin these days.

We see Tim, Todd, and Brendan as Brendan takes a spin on the knee walker.

Ditto for Harold as he and Jeff hang out.  It’s been almost ten years since I’ve run into Jeff!

What does a lace up shirt mean to you?

You’ve got to love Bill’s wheel jockey!

Seamstresses that do this type of work are getting harder to find.

You almost always see these two together: Don and Nelson.  They are the most knowledgeable fellas around although Don’s shirt does look a bit small.

Dave, Rob, Dave, and Cris

You’re supposed to put your knee on it not your bottom!

I meet some more of the W-S crew: Craig, Tim, and Nick

I tell Mark I want her jacket.  He says he’ll take the girl instead.  Where’s the lifted pinky?

I passed on the espresso but took some chocolates instead.

A beautifully dressed couple

Ducati makes a nice showing as always.

I hear the apparel catalog is as big as the motorcycle one.

 

Here is the new Multistrada.

It’s almost as if my leg isn’t broken!

This is what happens when you’re a nurse: everyone wants some free medical advice.

Jeff and I meet again.  He has recovered from his elbow surgery before my leg is healed.  Jeff was two bikes behind me after my accident.  He had to pick me up and set me up on the motorcycle for my nice GS ride to the ER.

Craig and Mark are matching my threads.

Tap Out has a big display.

David and Will make a pitstop at Costco for unregulated spirits.  I wish our ABC folks would quit spending $12K at Del Frisco’s then overcharging us for booze!

Seriously.  This guy came in full gear then put his helmet on for his girlfriend to take his photo on the bike.  I hope there is more to this story.

Go go gadget ER6n!

Black shirt anyone?

They have a whole section for women riders and lookie there… it’s an XT!

Suzuki time

Jason is stylin’ and profilin’ with a helmet with some brake lights and exhaust painted on. 

In case you want to buy me an Arai helmet, I have a 55cm size small head and I fit Quantums and Corsairs.  Thanks!

Ryan is working his booth and this is one wild looking ride.

And then we all roar with laughter.  Mad Libs are the stuff!

We enjoy another great bike show where we spend just as much time looking at bikes as we do socializing with friends.  What a great way to spend the day!
