KarlS Posted September 9, 2010 Share #1 Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) September 24th and 25th is the 4th annual Bikes on the Bricks in Flint Mi.

Bike show with 8 categories on Saturday. My 83VR makes the Antiques. (1985 and older). Will be a fun time for all.

straycatt Posted September 9, 2010 Share #3 Posted September 9, 2010 This is a pretty cool event, and getting bigger every year. If you've never seen an LEO Motor Officer Rodeo, this is the place to do it. They limit the class to 75 bikes and they will have that many LEO riders there. They come from all over the state. Most of these guys can ride very well, and a few not worth a damn. I've run their obstacle course, and it's interesting to say the least. This is the only Skills training/competition for these guys in the state. The Friday practice is fun because the competitors are having fun and screwing around.....lots of bike lay downs. When I get home from work tonight I'll post some pictures from last years event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunkylump Posted September 24, 2010 Share #15 Posted September 24, 2010 Beth and I had made plans to attend, but we now have two boats coming in to load....so I'll be working all weekend. There's good and bad in that....the money is nice, but it would be nice to have a weekend off as well. I'm on midnites this week and next, so throw the weekend in with it, and that's 12 midnites in a row.....I'm NOT a midnite type person. Don't sleep worth a dang, by the end of next week I'll be as ornery as a bear with a backside full of rocksalt! Oh well, I'll have next weekend off for sure, I've put in for a vacation do so that I can have our Canadian Thanksgiving off. gunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
