North Alabama Vintage Riders Digest for June 9, 2018

[renchinrider]

Hi, Everyone!

Sorry for getting this out late...It's been a realy hectic week thus far.

Saturday's breakfast was another "pack the house" event for us--we had to add tables and reduce elbow room!  But it was a great time, particularly because we had Dale's old Honda 350 back in the parking lot for the first time in several months, and Scott Paulson in attendance once again!

Mike Long took a few moments to emphasize the importance of making your Barber Vintage Fest reservations as soon as possible.  It appears that RV parking may already be fully booked, so other lots and plots will likely go fast as well.  Though October 5-7 seems far off, it'll be hear before we know it!

Here's what's coming up:

- June 18-22:  The American Gold Wing Association is hosting their 35th Gold Classic Rally in Johnson City, TN. http://www.agwa.com/index.php/upcoming-events/gold-classic-xxxv-2018-info

- June 22-23:  33rd Annual British in the Blue Ridge Rally, Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds, Hiawasee, GA https://www.cyclefish.com/motorcycle_event/46707

- June 22-24:  BMW Owners of Alabama are holding a rally at Two Wheels of Suches.  http://twowheelsofsuches.com/event/bmw-moal-bmw-motor-owners-alabama/?instance_id=134

- June 30th:  Redstone H-D is hosting a Luau Party at their facility on 565 at Greenbrier Rd.  They'll have great Hawaiian Inspired food to chow down on, live music, over $1000 in giveaways and one heck of a Limbo Competition.  https://www.cyclefish.com/motorcycle_event/47366

July 13-15:  Triumph Owners Motorcycle Club's big weekend rally at Two Wheels of Suches!  http://twowheelsofsuches.com/events/action~month/exact_date~1530417600/request_format~html/

July 17:  Our second flash mob of the season.  This time, it'll be at Straight to Ale.  Mother Nature's weather smiled on our first flash mob, and all who were able to make the trip to Hartselle had a great time.  No doubt, Straight to Ale will be just as much fun, so mark your calendars!

September 22nd:  Iron Coffins MC is hosting their 1st Annual North Alabama Bikers Ball at Redstone H-D!  All proceeds benefit St. Jude's Childrens Hospital.  Tickets are available thru either Redstone H-D or Iron Coffins members Savage (251) 597-8565 or OJ, (256) 321-9494.

Please let me know of any events I have missed, and send me stories of the vintage motorcycle activities that interest you!
