Destination is voted on at the Harley shop before departure..voted for Regatta's restaurant in lake Arthur. La some 43 miles distant as the crow flies////we took the longer scenic route and ended up putting 116 miles on the scoot
The eatery is above the water and is only a few years into operation but the food is excellent and the service is likewise..
Nine bikes and 14 people..
We were scattered out in every direction in the parking lot since there were very few empty parking spaces
Some of us found the only shade around including me...The Black pearl is to the left in front
The view from the outside dining area
The crew....
Parked next to my bike was a Titan...kool bike
Temperature when I got back home at 1:45
.Told the friend since was for a good cause would go with him and paid my $20 and we pulled out at 1:20PM.Just a sign of how slow they were going to be.No drinking or drugs that I saw in around fifty [emoji106] .About half prewar and rest mostly old 60s/70s hot cars.Some really nice and enough rats to be fun.So slow it was not as much fun as it should have been.Took us till 4:35 to do less than 80 miles with the three draws inbetween first and last.I did not get even a pair but won a small door prize.Met a old motorcycle friend that knew me and asked if I still had my cowglide and old 37 truck.He was in a rat 41chevy flat bed and wanted to sell his 2000 cop bike that he had just got new the last year I rode with him.Not a bad day but just way too slow and did not need to be.
