2010 Red Bull Indy MotoGP

This is a fun weekend if you took in the motorcycling events in the city surrounding the GP race.  The Downtown Indy was just crazy with bikes of all types and international people.  Sat nite was rock'in into the wee hours with bands and bike stuff in all blocked off streets of downtown.  The XDL Stunt Bike Championships took place on a street north of the War Memorial.  The Fair Grounds hosted the Mile Dirt Track races.  Then the GP Sunday.  Here are a few pics.  The rest, along with videos I hope, will be on the www.sonsofthunder.myphotoalbum.com

Sat Ride 8-28-10

Seven of us met and road to New Castel at Rt.36 Resturant.  Nice ride through the countryside.  On the way back, John W. wanted to stop in anderson at the Cow Polks for a belt.  We wound our way through the counties untill we wnded up 2 blocks form the place.  We went back to Carmel to Phil's cycle garage and put Dyna Beads in the tires of Ed T. and John W's bikes.  The rest of the weekend was the MotoGP, more on that later.

   

  

Sat Ride 8-14-10

Another small group ride.  The morning looked like it might rain on us so few showed up but we did decide to ride fairly close to home.  Eva's at Anderson was the eatery of choice.  Good breakfast and fellowship.  Kim Swan is now an official member of the club as she laied her bike on the spill bar at an akward up-hill stop in the country.  No damage.

 


  

     

 

Sat. Ride 8-7-10

We had a small group of riders that met and rode to Lebanon for breakfast.  Nice weather gave us a jacket ride there and then warmed us nicely on the way home.

Sat Ride 7-31-10

We had a good turn-out last Sat.  Nine of us road to Greensburg for breakfast (almost brunch).  Wayne lead us there on his new Ducati through the back roads.  After breakfast the majority headed for home and Chuck,  Alan, Pastor Dave and myself went on through the countryside and ended up in Metamora.  We stopped and talked to Mayor Jim.  He is in bad health and was lying in an adjustable bed in the front room of the Trappers Rendezvous.  He said he has lost everything and is selling his farm.  Pastor Dave and I had a prayer with him that he appreciated.  Just outside of town it started to rain.  We stopped and got on what gear we had and proceeded home.

Sat. Ride 7-24-10

We had a good group ride last week.  We had 10 bikes with 12 riders.  Good to have Jim Swan's daughter in-law along too.  Cynthia  showed up and introduced to a friend, Shelly, who rides a Shadow 750 and hopefully will come along with us soon.  We took the Wayne's Way to Shelbyville  to Grandma's and then back home.  Too hot for much longer.  It was good to have pastor Dave Mullins along on his Harley Sporty too.  We we even had BMW Dave Quiring along.  Wanye made an announcement that he purchased a new Ducati 1200S MultiStrada and it is to be in this week.
